if your ecu is chipped then do the install and take it to mainstream or some one that can dyno tune it.

get it chipped before you do it. chip kits don't cost that much. my buddy used xenocron for his chip kit on his lsvtec. get someone to solder it in to your ecu and have it tuned. :goodjob:

yeah but then you have to pay for chipping the ecu and tuning which will put you at 6-7 hundred. with that money buy a kidd racing header and skunk 2 manifold

if you are tedious enough and know what you are doing with a soldering iron, you can install a chip kit yourself and save that money.

now tuning on the other hand, leave that to the pros.

ITB's on an otherwise stock car is retarded.

on a b16 its a complete waste of money. On a gsr its a complete waste of money. The only ITBs worth a shit are Kinslers or Jenveys and you better have a 220-250whp motor for it to matter

a standard Skunk2 or ITR style intake manifold will make MORE POWER for cheaper on any 2.0l and below engine than ITBs.

BLACK_R on here made 193whp with his ITR motor (Hytech header, TODA Bs) and made 186whp with his Toda ITBs. The motor simply cannot move enough air for it to matter
