Henn wrote on Wed, 21 September 2005 11:45 | I have seen multi throttle bodies run on FI engines (namely turbo 20Vs, and GTRs) and clearly it works. However I don't think they are quite as important as on an NA car.
This is because ITBs become useful when chasing that extra little bit of flow (and therefore power) on a hard built NA engine. On an FI engine they should do the same thing, but the same result could be achieved but turning the boost up ever so slightly. Less effort for the same result.
Also I've read that when chasing BIG horsepower, the multithrottles on GTRs are ditched for a big single. No solid backup for that last one though.

Couldnt have stated it better myself. Once you cross a certain threshold on bigturbo engines you just basically want to get as much air in there as possible
