Check out what I got. The ports dont line up quite right but Im going to look into it a bit. Not sure how im ging to make them line up better quite yet. Thought id share.
I will be making my own flange out of 5/8" mild steel and try to adapt with 2" aluminized pipe.
That's the weirdest trumpet I've ever seen...

Ahh....you're the one who bought those...I was wondering who on here was the winner of that ebay auction.

That site has some neat stuff. Wish I could afford to but the set they have on there.
Yea quad4rods has some nice stuff but way overpriced and lack in customer service. but nice ITB's.
Nice find!! but uhh quick question.. how does one tune with ITB's without a MAP reading? (or a map sensor)
^easy...cause there is one.

^ Is it like an older ld9 or quad 4, where it dosent have that? or do you just tune based on RPM TPS and a wideband reading or something like that? ^
^Drill and tap all four runners and make a common port for the MAP...it's easy. That's how every ITB setup I've seen do it.

Haha nah not me, Ive had the throttle bodies under my bed for a little over a year and just got the velocity stacks. Im about to re do my engine and thought now would be a good time to break em out.

Like stated above I will tap the runners for the map. In our cars the ecm controls fuel with the RPM and TPS. The map has to do with timing if im correct.
Let me know how it goes!
GMR has got nothing on this
the quad 4 rods manifold for DCOE throttles is like $300... makes it a lot easier than making your own (and no silicone couplers in sight!)
I am still really torn with doing real ITBs on an eco.. I just don't know.
Oh wow...thanks for pointing that out. I didnt even notice those. ITBs on an eco would be sweet.

well let us know how your set up goes. Thats going to look pretty awesome to say the least.
Even if you dont do anything besides mount them at least post pics.
Now that the wife has gotten into grad school it looks like the motor build is put on hold again, so I guess I will share what I have found when researching my eventual motor built.

(Make sure you select the US currency on the right side, I think the company is based in Australia so its their currency by default.)
They have all different kinds of air horns, filters, and styles of ITB's.
In addition to options for the TB's like: a D shaft mod for TPS, vacuum channels and fuel rail types.
They have ITB's that will bolt right up to the quad4rods DCOE Side Draft manifold.
With the options I chose for the ITB's that mount to a DCOE manifold it came out to be just over $1,000 + 300 for the manifold that comes out to about $1,300 ($1,410 after shipping costs) for as close to bolt up ITB as you can get on our platform. Still expensive but it looks quality and should be great to have with Ron's 226 cams and high comp.

Im not sure which is a better way to go but quad4rods does make a bolt on set:

True, but it doesn't give TB size, horn size, doesn't say if its set up for the TPS sensor or what the set up is for the injectors. It all could be answered by asking them but it seems odd their site doesn't give any discriptions or even the actual picture of the part. It is a few hundred dollars cheaper though. Just thought I would post up options I had found...
