Motorcycle TB for ITB setup?
anyone done it? I've seen pics of deathstar89's setup, it looks awesome, but I need one for other reasons... got any pics/recommendations?most of the motorcycle TB's I've seen don't have an actual mounting flange, which would make mounting them a little harder. my setup would be on a turbo 3500 V6

Re: Motorcycle TB for ITB setup?
most are connected with rubber couplers.
u coudl make mounting flanges that bolt down and then use the couplers, or u could carfully weld the tb's down to a mounting plate.
on a boosted app i would weld them down ,beaing as if one of the tb's pop off that cyl would be like the throttle was wide open so u could iagine the damage that would cause.
on an n/a build there would be much less chance of poping one of the manifold to itb couplers off

Re: Motorcycle TB for ITB setup?
I'm looking for 42mm tb's I think that would probably be a nice sweet spot for the 3500. the "boost hat" is the part i'm dreading, the rest would be cake. I'm kind thinking it may be time for a custom intake to make it's way onto the scene.
