They are still developing that ITB kit, but at $1000 less than the ZPI turbo I'd be a lot happier to get this. $2500 including a full, pre-tuned standalone. First of all, you can spend the $1000 doing a proper clutch system to handle the increased power. Second, you have more tuning capabilities because your extra power isn't dependent on your car hitting a certain RPM.

Actually, the guy who owns the xA that is being used to develop the kit moved to this after having a bolt-on supercharger and realized the supercharger had caused a bit of blow-by. Scary. He ended up having to buy brand new pistons and rings.

You could go turbo and internals on top of a setup like this for a Corvette-destroying Yaris. You're probably talking 10 grand worth of work, but who knows? Maybe we will see it one day.

you will actually spend $2500 for the itb's before saving up another $1000 and go for the proven turbo kit???

why would you do that? you can make your own itb's, of you can get the wiring figured out for less than that. why not get somebody to make a intake manifold and pair it with a bigger tb and go from there?

i did and you said you would go with this before going with ZPI's turbo kit because some kid blew his piston rings after supercharging his XA.

i know you were asking about ecu pinouts for some kind of engine management but in the thread you posted the pic of the itb's and themn said your comment.
