GI:MOTOR FX ITB part2
 
I.T.B. = Individual Throttle Bodies; commonly found on high performance and/or race engines.
https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...der/xA_itb.jpg
improves power, torque, overall acceleration and throttle response with OUT the headaches of forced induction

Well some of you might know that MOTOR FX has been developing a BOLT-ON itb set up to fit the first gen xA/xB.

basically the mechanical parts has been done over a year now, but full bolt on production was delayed because we needed to figure out the best electronics to use on the car but also keeping the entire KIT cost down.

We are glad to announce that the ITB kit will SOON be a COMPLETE bolt-on including the following items:

-itb kit
-intake manifold adapter
-throttle cable relocator/adapter
-velocity stacks
-and pre-tuned electronics
-all install hardware
-instruction manual

Making our kit the 1st and ONLY complete bolt on ITB kit in the market today available for SCION xA and xB!

we are still debating whether to offer the stacks as polished or satin silver finish
we are planning on making both a manual and automatic tranny campatible ITB kit
iprce point is still undetermined but it will be cheaper than forced induction for sure
and we are expecting about a 30HP gain and a bit more TQ over stock + factor in your basic bolt ons, the car should run like a champ (featherweight champ)

any questions, comments or concerns please feel free to chime in

+NOTE: this item is not yet available nor is it for sale at this point, just intro to see if we get good response so we can go ahead and complete the project+

thank you

Can't wait... many of us have been waiting for a real alternative to FI. Just comes down to price... keep it well under $2k and it'll sell like hotcakes.
Any plans for xB2/TC's in the future?

Tercel95 07-26-2007 02:40 PM

As long as I could verify that there would be no CEL's or problems with the way the car runs I would absolutely buy one of these kits.

JSosa 07-26-2007 04:40 PM

Sorry to sound skeptical, but how can you make 30+ HP with just an ITB setup?? I know all the great things about ITB's, ive been following your kit around for a while, but i just dont understand how velocity stack on a 1.5L can produce so much power. If anybody can help me out with this, please do!

Motor-FX 07-26-2007 07:20 PM

the car will be tested on both the street and the dyno

as far as CELs we will be pre tuning the electronics and we will make sure that it wont happen

as far as the 30HP, that is only an estimate, we will dyno tune the car to see "real world" performance gains with a dyno sheet to back it up

thanx

MattyRattyPoo 07-26-2007 07:24 PM

Good info Coi!!

tC9o9 07-26-2007 07:25 PM

are you back in business now?

emokid158 07-26-2007 07:35 PM

this is the first i've actually read about itb's, i've seen them, but never knew what they did.

this setup cancels out an air filter/intake right?
so...would the car pass smog? i know it can't be carb legal.

tC9o9 07-26-2007 07:37 PM

it replaces the intake/filter and would make your car not carb legal, but it may pass smog.

but honestly, the sound of ITB's is just amazing, even on an xA.

TCpete 07-26-2007 07:39 PM

any plans for the tc?!?!

Gaps720 07-26-2007 08:35 PM

i'm totally interested... i want something more reliable than a turbo AND I LIKE IT LOUD!

superboxcarxb 07-26-2007 08:53 PM

I WOULD BUY ONE IF IT WAS EVER AVAILABLE

i plan on keeping my box for a "while".

stickslikevelcro 07-26-2007 11:11 PM

I'm definitely interested! I'd love to see a dyno sheet before you guys put the kit to market. As previously stated, hopefully it won't throw a CEL and will pass smog.

jct 07-26-2007 11:47 PM

so whats the fuel economy on this set up hopefuly it'll stay the same or better just hope its not crummy

streetlethalxb 07-27-2007 01:22 AM

me want

fcastle11 07-27-2007 02:01 AM

I've been following this since you first posted this up Coi. I hope everything works out. I can't wait to hear how it sounds and a dyno plot. I have an Auto so if it hits 130, it's cool w/me. Now that you'll have engine management w/it. I can consider it fully.

987KEITH 07-27-2007 02:02 AM

i'm in

Motor-FX 07-27-2007 08:56 AM

yes everyone, with the NEW electronics set up passing SMOG is totally acceptable, maybe NOT the visual but the sniffer it will

it will NOT throw any CEL

and we are developing an Auto and Manual trans kit

we will also consider offering performance packages as well (+header, +full exh etc.)

we are also planning a tC kit soon after the xA/xB kit gets released

we will also be testing fuel economy as well

as far as business, we never stopped doing business, we just moved and had a lot of set backs inbetween

we are also looking for a "bone stock" manual tranny xB for testing (pm me if interested)

-stay tuned-

THANK YOU

TCpete 07-27-2007 01:36 PM

Big_Bird 07-27-2007 01:39 PM

*watches*

blueturnipxa 07-28-2007 07:56 AM

i want it!! Can you give us a estimate of the price?




can't wait!!!!

Motor-FX 07-29-2007 06:40 AM

give me a few days i shoulld have a pretty "loose" estimate of the products

thanx

andysxA 07-29-2007 10:04 PM

im in if the price is right. although i probably wont get it until tax return time next year or so.

keg79 07-29-2007 10:10 PM

definatly interested.....waiting for the dyno #'s and pricing

Gaps720 07-30-2007 01:23 AM

ooooooooh pm me price plz

Max 07-30-2007 01:36 AM

Pricing estimate FTW!

Motor-FX 07-30-2007 06:54 AM

im going to work on pricing this week, but honestly dont want to post or PM it til i get DYNO charts, that in itself will prove its worth

by the way what does FTW mean? im such a forum NOOB

jct 07-30-2007 11:14 AM

hey i runnin nitro on my car, could i still have wit the itb setup if i ran a nozzle after each tb or would i just need ta sell my kit? i know i need to jet and tune each cylinder, just wana know if itll work

itsme 08-03-2007 07:03 AM

will there be any kind of filter for the ITB for everyday driving? cuzz i would like to keep all dat nasty stuff out of my motor but yea i would b interested in the kit

Motor-FX 08-03-2007 09:32 AM

u can still run Nitrous, u just need a custom intke manifold adapter either from your local speed shop or special ordered thru us, and yes tuning is all up to you

as far as the filter, we are working things out as far as pricing and options, regarding the air filter and/or velocity stacks (as seen in pic)

keep you all posted

thank you

hotbox05 08-03-2007 11:09 AM

make it carb legal , between this and the greddy s/c and greddy turbo , first to be carb legal gets my money.

allthough n/a > f/i

da race to get hotbox05's money....who will get it n/a or f/i? we will c in due time :P

ChinoCharles 08-05-2007 02:30 PM

We're watching this thread in Yarisworld. Knock this thing out and keep that price down and you may see a bunch of 1NZ powered cars running these.

Motor-FX 08-07-2007 08:53 AM

YES YES we will have a YARIS kit as well!!!

as far as legality it "should" pass the sniffer, but of course not the "visual" (in a good way) cus the ITB setup just looks too sweet!!!

more details after the very hectic August show season here in CA.

thanx everyone

Cisco60 08-08-2007 01:41 AM

Please make this kit for all of us who don't have enough money to go turbo or supercharged yet :pray: !! Plus it just looks sick you should definetly offer it chromed out!! Matched to a chrome valve cover they would look badass. Let me know when they come out cuz the firsts ones sold lock it up!!!

Shaggy 08-10-2007 12:20 AM

I will buy this in a heart beat. I will be watching this thread. Please post up prices asap!!!!!
