only thing i could see is to make a sealed box that the itbs are in and have a intake with the maf at the end then a filter..(seen this on a n/a fd with a 3 rotor)

Seeing your Q's sparked an interest for me and so I did what most of the people here do first and usesd the SEARCH button in the top right hand corner. Turns out PandaS14 has already done a write up on this. Go ahead hit the button type ITB in the search block, scroll the forum block down to KA and viola about eight threads come up with all kinds of info! Go on do it, do it now before you forget.

yep.

to get this done you have to weld a plenum around the air horns of the ITBs, and run a standard intake pipe, or ram if you will, to the MAF and the air filter

however, i gotta add using a megasquirt ecu and converting to a MAP sensor is the way to go here, as adding a plenum and a ram will cause some effects that may be undesired if you dont know how to control them

Yes Search!! That might help. But wait, if everyone actually used the search, we wouldn't have any stupid questions to answer all the time, what fun would that be. haha, lol.

yes quite, for you i would wait until devious gets his new DE rom tunes, he said before he was going to make it possible to run off a map sensor

i don't think you can handle megasquirt yet... i mean it doesnt even come as an assembled ecu...

not really... if some kid with $50 bucks and a soldering iron can rig his civic with uberdata, you can do your 240, just take the time to do the research.

the hard part about ms for most people who are intimidated by it, is the ignition stuff. Since it's very difficult to run the stock distributor. But that's just following directions too.
