These would make for an awsome NA setup. Fabricating them to fit would be easy,but to control them efficently I wouldnt know where to start.

I know there is a Japanese company that has a single TB kit, but iirc it was around $8-9,000 
I forget which company though....not worth it imo.

itb? not really worth it imo...you will lose a lot down low, but gain topend. its moreso for track racing where the cars spend most of their time in the power band.
with a itb you will need to have a standalone to run it, not to mention the problem of getting it all to work right.

Yeah, i wouldnt try it, all the techs where i worked said that they were a ***** to fix. And they were trained to do it. Also, you want to custom fabricate a system that will work on it for your car. I would say a *** load of time and money. Just get a new plenum. You would probably get the same gains. But if you do attempt it. good luck. And then show us a pic when you either finish it, or f+ck up your car.

you also have to figure out some way to make a manifold for an inline six fit on the exhaust ports of a v6. and stand alone.
i think tommy kaira makes the itb kit that is mentioned in this thread.
too much work and $$ to be worth it.......although that is a pretty good price for that setup.
