im looking imto both for the future the only concern for me with a turbo build is that it looks abit out of my talent  But itb's look alot easier and offer good power and not bad prices at around £1800 for a setup direct to head with ecu Does anyone have experiance with each what there like to live with, what extra work would be best on the engine ect. ect. |

Done ITB's route, think it depends on what you want to achieve numbers and outright power then turbo route, if a basic up to 200 bhp then possible with NA |

Mine is now just a track car but quite mild tune of 173bhp but feels like would be good on the road, but to be honest couldn't consider spending £1800 just on ITB's and ecu, as to get most from it would need cams and ported head as well so be up to around £2500! Just on engine, may be could pick up a turbo or second hand set up for less |

N/A tuning is simpler from that point of view. you wont have to do it all in one hit to get it to run...and everytime you do something else youll feel the difference. although when a turbo car spools up and goes..thats an awesome feeling too  i have a webber alpha setup in the garage. literally base mapped and ready to bolt on. im not a million miles away from cambridge either and no where near the cost of buying a new kit  PM me if your interested.

Fair enough, think about ecu? |

| Post subject: | Re: itb or turbo? |
i was thinking that not sure if some aftermarket management could be added at a later date but for now just putting the bodies on as there will still be a slight increase |

You will have to enclose them if using the standard ecu like will did. |

| Post subject: | Re: itb or turbo? |
ok do u mean like a filter over them? What difference what it make between standard and aftermarket without covering them? |

| Post subject: | Re: itb or turbo? |
ok i understand now lol just didnt read the end carefully enough lol One question about ecu where can you get them mapped on a rolling road? is it anywhere with a rr thats offering mapping or does it hqve to be from certain places ie where you purchase the ecu? |

| Post subject: | Re: itb or turbo? |
Most places that have a RR will do mapping. Depends on what ECU too. |

| Post subject: | Re: itb or turbo? |
im guessing the more commercial and expensive ones will have more places that do mapping
