Hum, just found a vid on youtube
IRTB miata.
I recognize the car, the owner lives here in Houston. I'll have to try and check it out

you heard him....he proved why all-motor "doesn't suck"
oh, wait, he really didn't prove anything did he....and adding throttle bodies is nothing....if you're going to suck all-motors *****, and at least humor him with some overbore, higher compression, etc.

Yup, you hit the nail on the head there. I am a recovering IRTB fanboi.
I had the same kit on my Miata for about a 2 months. Ran fine with my Megasquirt. For some reason it just didn't live up to the hype for me (except for the sound, that was intoxicating). I wasn't expecting MASSIVE gains but it really didn't feel much different than my car does now with the stock manifold and no AFM.
I gained 4 hp peak and ~10hp from 6.5k to 7.5k over my RX-7 AFM setup, 111 hp on a Dynojet. Needless to say I was pretty dissapointed after I had spent $1,500. I still need to re-dyno my car with the Megasquirt and no AFM. If its more than 2hp less than when it had the IRTB's, I'll kiss your ***.
Then I need to get the sand out of my vagina and turbo my Miata but that's another thread, for another time

Miata + ecu plus no maf = instant response.
I think the IRTB are more for "looks in a sense" Unless you have a built enclosure to help feed them, along with a turbo shoving air into them. But even still all that work for?
My 92 was so eager to respond after I deturboed it and just ran it with the link. The removed restriction plus the increase in timing for a cost of less than this kit.
