Got a special package today.
 
Came home to a suspicious package dropped off by the brown truck today.
I wonder who it could be from?

I know all us HMT people open our mail this way. HMT letter opener (screwdriver).

Aaaww Yeah! Dave (CSaddict) did the welding for me on these puppies. It came out really clean, and although I don't have a pic of it, the throttlebody assembly is almost perfectly lined up with the runners. A little trimming of the runner length and they will be golden.

What do I think of Dave's work, and HMT?

Thanks alot Dave, these things should be pretty fun on the Mini-me hatch once I finish up the fuel rail and TPS.

Haha nice. Yeah Alex I was considering turboing this one too but I drive it everyday and having 2 turbo vehichles and keeping them reliable tends to be a problem for me... I just keep trying to get more power and more boost until that one day it goes pop. I figured I'd keep it safe for now ;)

I was thinkin about doin ITB's on a 240SX project I'm startin this summer this summer. I've got few questions:

1. How are you plannin on controlling the idle? I was thinkin of using the factory IACV and teeing the idle air using vacuum (see pic below)

2. What are you you using for throttle bodies?

3. How did you mount your injectors?

What are you going to tune with? I hear crome is quite good for ITB's. I had a set for a while but sold them after my money ran out.
