Red face ITBs and the S2000

I'm thinking I want to keep the NA-ness of the S2000, so I'm looking at getting some Individual Throttle Bodies.

I've done some research and I know I will need a higher output fuel pump and a programmable ECU (for this I will use the AEM EMS 1052u) for starters. I will replace the exhuast manifold with the Ricks item, and I'll worry about the test pipe later!

Has anyone who has actually installed ITBs got some useful tips/techniques/base maps to help me with my quest?

You do not need a fuel pump, but you will need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, AEM EMS with wideband (prefferably), and some patience. What kit are you looking at? There's a few of us here running ITBs....I think we'll be able to help out with any specific questions you may have.

How many/who is running the ITBs on their 2.2? Are they getting good improvments? What kind of numbers?

thanks!

true, but thats a 10% gain, not many other parts can show that kind of improvment for about $1500

plus the throttle responce and the sound the air pulsing makes is well worth it!

no...half that is ITB's on they're own...but since you can't run ITB's w/o a standalone, in essence, it IS due to the ITB's, since the ECU is a necessary component to running ITB's
