It is currently impossible. ITB's require a lot of tuning and there is currently no way to tune these cars. Revive this thread once hondata releases ... something for us and I will be glad to help but for now it would be a waste of your and my time. If you would just like to research them go to k20a.org and use the search function and look for ITB's there is lots of info there.

P.S. don't make a new thread there asking this same question. Everyone will laugh at you, call you a noob and tell you to search.

k20a.org is a highly technical site. There are a lot of professionals there that gained their knowledge through long hours under a hood, late nights in shops and sitting through classes. Most of the the questions you could ask have already been asked and answered. I was just warning you because being that they gained their knowledge the hard way they wont have patience for a guy not even willing to search. I am not saying you aren't willing to search I was just warning you before you created a new thread, got flamed and gave up on a very informative site.

You are absolutely right. Itb do not bolt to a cai or f/i piping. The air horns take in air directly from the atmosphere typically with out a filter.

From what I hear on s2000 forums, the 06+ s2k's with DBW can be fitted with ITB's. This is what I searched up "Sure, if you suck something in. Your 06+ ECU can be remapped. I would probably advise against ITB since you have an electronic throttle. Setting it up will be a cluster **** and require lost of custom electrical and mechanical work. You would be surprised how far you can get on a common plenum setup. "

-http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=459768&st=375&#entry10055690

but because we can't tune right now, there isn't really a solution until it comes out but i'm sure that once tuning does come out someone could work something out with the DBW system

its not the dbw thats the problem its the maf controlling fuel and the much more powerful immobilizer. Hondata can crack the ecu and the immobilizer but they need to do so in such a way as to not make a car thief's tool.

yeah your right. you're right but also from what I hear is that hondata is not coming out with a tuning system at the moment so we probabl wont be seeing a k-pro compatible si device any time soon anyways.


EVEN if the si had the capability of handling ITB's it would be very exensive and require hours and hours of tuning to get it to any certain driveable state.
