On the Honda-tech forum there are quite a few who have tried and posted up various trumpet lengths. It is a bit like Vortex with lots of I know better than you cos my text book is bigger kind of stuff but there' some reallt interesting work and real results there.
I got a couple I'll try dig out. I only registered there on somebody else's advice to find out precise sizes of diff bodies. Give us a few secs.
This is a 17 page monster http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=775280 and it's continued here http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=975931 There's probably a few more too but those were the only ones I kept up with. If you're interested you might find a couple of these useful http://www.globalsuzuki.com/motorcycle/moto/gsxr1000/pi_3.ht ml http://www.suzuki-bikes.com/forum/ bit quiet on this one
why i was asking is i'm watching a supercharger on and to get the right system i was going to try megasquiry with bike tb and then make a manifold that sat on the tb to the blower to get acurate fueling. Jack
I don't think there's enough space to have ITB's and a charger. TBH I don't think there'd be much point in ITBs with a charger either, other than to be different. But it would be quite funky
centerfual charger so i could have tb cos the charger would sit where the air box sits. just need to make a manifold for the tb's and pipe work.
I don't think i'm gonna go for TB's. It's a lot of money for no gain in my opinion. And after spending god knows how many on my track car it'll be that loud that i get black flagged at every track day.... errrmmmm.... NO THANKS!
It won't be that loud, the exhaust is surely louder? I mean loads of standard road cars run throttle bodies.
TB's are LOOOOUUUUDDDDDD On the majority of cars more in car noise normally comes from the induction side than the exhaust - surprising but true
an airbox without flat sides over the trumpets with a remote filter can deaden the noise but not limit power. TT runs a charger and throttle bodies on his 20v
I don't deny they are loud but look at VHPD Caterfields etc, BMWs, Porsche, ferraris etc. I'm sure many of those drivers fancy a track day jaunt or two.
My standard K-Jet induction noise is much much louder than my exhaust noise. Tested @ Uni with a several static and fly-by tests with loads of different SPL meters.
After owning a car with AND without ITB's I would certainly never sw*p yours for the total transformation Bill's Jenvey/DTA kit gives you. Why not be nice to someone and see if they can let you drive a nice black car with one of these conversions in it and then your opinion will change. I sold my car because of problems in my personal life and will never buy and modify another MK2 because the one i had was one of the most complete in the UK and evolved over approx 6 years. Oh yeah, fitting charges for the kit is zero to someone as clever as you and for under 300 quid Vince will have it mapped and it would be very unlikely to go out of tune within a few months.
