DIY ITBs, Do It Yourself Individual Throttlebodies! With pics! Options

[Pivot]

This thread will be an ongoing How-to article on installing Individual Throttlebodies from a 2004 Yamaha R6 onto a 7afe(ae102).

The first few installments will be purely mechanical, and will assess designing a bracket, figuring out how modify the fuel system on the engine, and fabbing up a plenum and with spots for most sensors(haven't decided on the EGR system yet). Towards spring, I will be installing the entire setup and fine tuning it.

This really is a grassroots mod, and i don't believe it should cost much more than $200 if you know where to look for parts and how to do basic welding. I bought my ITB's off ebay for $20, so the stuff is out there.

Any comments or suggestions can be posted at anytime, however please make sure they are relevant to this thread. Thanks and enjoy.

*pics will be up soon of the ITBs

I know how you dont like to voice your idea's about engines because some people will take it as a fact without further research. But, what is your take with ITB on a force induction setup?

I did emphasize "n/a" with regard to the 5SFE and 7AFE. Forced induction changes the game... but top-end flow is still limited by the turbo. In other words... depends on the turbo.
