Finally, direct from Malaysia I have a new ITB. I don’t need an ITB. All I need are the stupid clips that hold the injectors in. No matter. I have it! My car’s almost done!

2 simple little parts managed to gum up the whole works. Maybe you can make them and sell the extra manifold.

I’m going to use the extra ITB setup on my old 16V engine. :)

Yeah, it was frustrating. The attitude of the douche that sold me the engine made it worse. The next step after exhausting all options and having trouble finding an ITB setup that still had them was to buy a whole extra engine :/

What are you planning to do with the spare engine?

I’m sort of thinking about a twin charged setup, but that might be too ambitious. First I need to see what’s salvageable. I kind of destroyed it in spectacular fashion.

Might I ask where the engine came from?

Also, where are you getting the adapter for the 16v? I need one to put some silvertops on mine. (Not sure what I’m going to do with these blacktop ITBs of mine, though)

I got it from JDM Engine Corp. They have bad google and yelp reviews, but so does every supplier. I wasn’t expecting to be accused of stealing a part for my own engine though... I’ll probably get my ITB adapter through Techno Toy Tuning . Everything I’ve picked up from them is very high quality.
