Thanks! The COPs that Rasant sells are the shorter 2.0T coils that I plan to buy. They fit the holes well and help keep the cooling air from escaping through the hole. They do sit closer to the valve cover.

Hopefully we meet-up soon.
Curious..which 3D printer did you use?

I'm definitely going to bring the car out more now, so we will likely meet up soon. A friend was helping me with the 3D printing, i'm not sure what model it was.

Thanks! Here is an article that explains the advantages of ITBs

But as Mick_D noted, they're cool!
Here are a few more pictures of the whole setup
And here is a video of the "first start". This is before the ITBs were balanced and idle set

And another once everything was adjusted

Andrew from Rasant Products was a huge help getting it the AEM Infinity setup and tuned. I highly recommend his EFI kit.
Al Kosmal has been a huge inspiration as well with the Triumph ITBs and his linkage and throttle body kit are a great affordable option.
