    you answered your own question...

    less restriction is the bonus - (more high end power, increased throttle response...)

    although, if built improperly, ITBs will actually HINDER your cars performance... so one needs to take care in how well they design and port the runners.

    I will personally vouch for this statement. Very true. I've had to deal with this bullshit before, and it sucks. The runners width/length must be perfect.

    yeah. ill be building an all motor b20/vtec later on down the road. i like the idea of ITB's but the motor is probably gonna cost 8k(including tranny) to build so i dont know if i wanna spend another 1200 for ITB's if i can get the same power for 1/2 the price w/ a normal intake man.

    thanks for the help guys
