    ITB does not improve max powah automatically, it improves engine response, bc the butterfly valve is closer to the cylinder, and higher density air, which is right before the bf-valve, have shorter path to the cylinder. Between the closed throttle and workng cylinder there is a vaccum, air have lower pressure than atmosphere.
    There is not much difference in response, thats why not many stock cars, even sports cars, have ITB.
    Great vid, as usual.
    Cheers!

      Properly tuned, they most certainly do. The BMW m20 jumps from ~145whp to 175whp straight away with ITB. I did an m50 (155whp stock), added Jenvey ITB's and the car immediately made 177whp with everything but fuel maps being stock. Many folks are adapting the ITB's from the s54 for the earlier 24v 6's (m50, m52, USDM s50 etc) for the same reason. The s54 with it's 3.2 liters makes 355 from the factory, many cars running around here making 400+ with bolt-ons.

    • @Garage4age

      yup. 5% is pretty good for a stock cam na engine, across a decent amount of the power band. test kinda shows the stock inlet is pretty decent for what its designed to do at near factory power numbers, since the numbers come mostly from the runner length rather than the itbs.

      To get the most out of ITB's you need high compression ratio pistons, high lift camshafts, a good flowing engine head, a good exhaust system and an ECU tuned to all the above. To just drop in ITB's would be a waste of money.

    This would probably be complicated to make and I don't even know how I'd do it. Anyway, how about adjustable runner lengths? So that at lower RPMs the runners are shorter but extend as RPM increases. That way you get the low end power that short runners give and swap over to the high end power that longer gives. That sounds like a really neat experiment to try to solve.

    Fwiw adding a velocity stack to the throttle body would probably have been good for 1 or 2 hp alone. True you saw an increase in power as expected from the itbs but it should be noted they had velocity stacks on them to smoothen air flow and help gain power. Not saying the power gained was only from this by any means. But the intake manifold would have probably done a little better with a velocity stack on it.

  • @Dane33781
    @Dane33781 Před rokem

    I love the content you put out and this criticism is meant to be constructive. Assuming your AFR data is good, I think you could gain a little keeping your fuel more on target. Engines don't usually seem to like abrupt changes in fuel or timing. I've seen small gains higher up from smoothing things out down low before. Resist the temptation to be a column tuner. Again, I'm trying to be 100% constructive and I really do enjoy your channel.

    • @Garage4age
      @Garage4age  Před rokem +1

      Hey. Final tune I get things tidier than what you would see in most of my videos. but there is barely enough change in power to be measurable , long as afr is within the window. a 10 degree change in oil temp will change power a whole lot more than an afr change. So isn't worth spending a bunch of timing getting the afr spot on when testing most things. I have a video testing fuel ratio. czcams.com/video/yjvPmG123nI/video.html

      head isnt stock. But that could be the reason why. It was the very first head i ported years ago. so that cylinder could be flowing different. or just the injector but only does it a high rpm so more likely head. its not the header as doesn't do it on my other engine.

    I really enjoy all these tests. I am surprised how close they are were, I expected wildly different results comparing a single tb to itbs. Reminds me of when I was chasing 200bhp n/a zetec engine on a budget but I had access to a dyno at work so spent hours trying everything I could think of. Ive see you say in a couple of videos the dual plenums live on the wall of shame, is there a video that explains why that is? I run a dual plenum myself, ive read mixed reports with a lot of people saying they are best but there's not much back to back testing as far as I can find. The fitment is ideal for my application so I'm not overlay concerned but I am curious

    • @Garage4age
      @Garage4age  Před 3 lety +2

      Its not really the dual plenum design, as to why they both ended up on the wall. the one in this vid makes less power due to the short runner, and isn't great for driveability and idle due to the plenum volume and single throttle. I think it would have its place in the right situation. The one on the itb setup, was done for fitment issues. ended up with the roof of the plenum being too close to the bellmouths. whats on my turbo setup now works best for me, the big single plenum was done to allow a lot of space around the bellmouths. and since is itb, it doesn't suffer from big plenum single throttle issues

    Why is one cyl running rich?
    Btw, did you ever compare your exhaust manifolds to a tri-Y (4x2x1) manifold?
    From a few places, forums, it seems that they are very good for midrange scavenging.
    Some folk with bigger engines say they are more effective till 7000-8000rpm but very sensitive to secondary section lenght. They tend to be very good to maximize extraction at many points at the rev range but it is easy to get the lenghts wrong. For higher revving engines, 4x1 seem to be more effective but i don't know which would be the inflection point to migrate from 4x2 to 4x1, also cam duration plays alot on that.
    Have you ever played with some of them?

      haven't tracked down the cause yet.

    I expected there won't be any serious advantage in power over stb. Itb is mostly for shortening throttle reaction times. And for the longer inlets: yes, they help, but the higher the engine revs, the shorter the inlets must be. Same is for exhaust headers. Plus 4-2-1 and 4-1 would make a good high rpm change. It all must be calculated to work properly.

    • @Garage4age
      @Garage4age  Před 3 lety

      The Itb's with black runners were the longest out of all the intakes. but yes the main advantage here is correct runner length. itb's do have other benefits than throttle response, engine with big cams will run nicer at low engine speeds. there is also some benefit having very big volume airbox and intake pipe or open throttles over a plenum around the intake runners,

  • @andrewleonard9257
    @andrewleonard9257 Před 2 lety

    The ITB's obviously have a straighter run into the ports, than the STB setup. However, is there more to the equation than just straighter airflow? The air passing through each ITB has to be continually reaccelerated, whereas the flow through the STB would be much more constant. On the other hand, the ITB setup gives each throttle body a chance to fully recover atmospheric pressure after the inlet valve closes. Not so for the STB. Which is best? At higher RPM it's the ITB setup of course, but would a good compromise between flow vs cost and complexity be a 2TB arrangement, where each TB feeds 2 cylinders rather than 1?

    • @Garage4age
      @Garage4age  Před 2 lety

      Its mostly the runner length and size that dictates the power. a good single throttle setup will get very close to matching and a good itb setup. But ITB will run nicer with big cams. especially so if start making the plenum size bigger on a single setup, to get more airflow / area around the runner entries
