ITB setup opinions?
#125
I fully enjoyed the debate however. Thank you for your good participation in it. Thank you Sav as well.
I hope the OP is not completely put off by what some have said about building a stout naturally aspirated motor. I have had a lot of satisfaction with my N/A. It can be very rewarding even if it is not the fastest car in the bunch, and the fact that it can be expensive. Just a totally different experience.

I'm not thrown off by anything stated in this thread, I'm just glad there are the amount of members on this site who have good educated responses. Will I say "forget the ITB idea?" Not sure yet. Maybe someday I'll do it, but right now my turbo setup has been on the car for years, and I'm sure it'll be there a few more.
What I really need is another Miata, one with turbo and the other with ITB's. Before that though, I need a bigger garage, I need to finish my ****** project, I need to finish my Triumph project, and then some.
My car also has 150,000 miles on it, and it should get new rings and have the head gone over. If I pull it to do all that, then I might go high comp pistons and part out the turbo setup, but that's deep into the unset future.

If you want to try ITB's don't forget it, I say try it out.
However, you just listed literally 4 or 5 projects that you are doing or want to finish, lol. I'd get those done first, then find a nice 90-93 chassis (lightest) and do a ITB's on high compressed VVT motor. That should make for a nice car.
Good luck.
