No, but only because of the finicky nature of tuning ITB's, there's no way you'd be able to dial them in without some form of dynamic tuning.
Ok, so it MAAAY technically be feasible through tons of hours of guess and check tuning or by someone who has tuned a large number of ITB systems and has a good idea of what would need to be changed, but not likely.

Just trying to give those '06+ owners some hope

Still an awesome mod.

Is it normal to see the plugs flashing? That was cool.
lol no it's not normal...that only happens under ignition cut. We set the rev limited (2-step) at 4000 rpm's for launching, and that's what it looks like

I have it off right now so I don't set my filters on fire, lol!

No, where we positioned the new regulator, the old return line reached. We just cut it, put it over a barbed no.6 straight thread, and plumbed it right into the bottom of the regulator. It actually looks really clean.

we cut the factory line down where it was rubber, just below the hard line. Then we plumbed in the rubber hose the the barbed fitting. I'd take a pic, but it seems the Mrs. ran off with the camera today...

Did you forget to lock the car doors?

Will I be seeing your new setup this evening?

I've been anxious to hear and see it in the flesh. ITBs aren't very practical for me since my car is a DD, so I have to live vicariously through you.
