int manifold v's itb's

[Colin89]

I am just wondering is it better to install say an aftermarket inlet manifold along with a bigger throttle body and a good induction kit or is it better to install individual throttle boddies! With both options assume they are to go on a well tuned engine!

i prefer a proper intake manifold and throttlebody with a good induction.

however if budget is NOT an issue then i prefer a itb set up with a custom plenum built around it (specific to that motors specs) with a proper induction system. but expect to pay ~5000 for that...

Thanks for the reply but i am not looking for a favoroute opinion but more of which gives better power gains on a tuned engine? thanks.....

Don't need to waste your money on a aftermarket manifold, boring out the TB is cheaper and just wait till your manifold becomes restrictive to your mods, then do it. Type R manifolds are already good and you won't get anything or much unless you've got big cams. This is just my opinion and money wise
