Thanks, Rich
Although I am nowhere near getting my ITBs running (42mm bike throttles, Microsquirt ECU), my goals in converting from the Motronic ECU/intake on the 3.2 are: much improved throttle response, modern & mappable ECU for tuning, visual and acoustic delight, losing the archaic AFM "barn-door". The big two for me are throttle response and induction sound. My previous project was a motorcycle-engined car and although I will never get the instant throttle response of a 998cc bike motor, I am expecting to recover the ITB orchestra that is so locking with the Motronic plenum.
