dont be a hater.

i bet a bone stock miata can do that with just a MS, fuck itb's

To each their own I guess. Personally, I don't get. ITB cars look and sound cool, but I would never own one.

oh im hatin! I wish I had a couple grand lying around. Id certianly have alot more than 105hp. I have more than that for probably half what he paid.

I could buy a guitar and a pimp suit for 2k and look and sound much cooler.

I like the idea of ITBs being force fed..
:)

Shit, I've already spent close to 4k and haven't even driven the damn thing since the day I drove it home and stuck it in the garage. Oh, and not ONE horsepower part yet.

A good engine build on 1.6 with .020 pistons, header and intake costing $2k made 103 ftlbs and 115hp at the rear wheels. Everything else was stock! :doh:
There MUST be some more power there from tuning.

when turbo cars shit on his chest, he can talk about the mega awesome throttle response.

he should take it to Jimmy's Hallet challenge! :rofl:

Im kinda surprised he didnt lose torque.

my dyno soon, im looking for more then 120 hopefully, possibly, maybe, prob not ahha

But it's better than a Turbo!

this is the full build

YUM !!

I like the BOV on the intake Mani !!!

I don't see why it would be all that great/benefitical. I'd rather one large TB and a well built plenum.

i suppose you could do it with one 90-100mm TB if you wanted.

I don't really see that much of an advantage to going that route.

Maybe you would save a little cash but i don't think it would be that much. If you bought a set of used ITBs and made your own set up.

a big TB isn't cheap.


Why would you rather go with one?

cause what gain do you get with 4 on a plenum?

104hp? if i made that much (little), i'd just resign the account and call it quits.
