There are many different ways to set up a manifold that works well. The problem is that not everyone uses it in the same way! Some road race and some drag race and ideal manifold for those applications are two completly different manifolds.
HKS did their home work when it comes to their LM675 project. That manifold gives incredible response and even air distribution. The draw back is that it doesnt flow to well up top but agian, it was never intended to do so since its for a for a road race application!
Its not that hard to setup a ITB's with foced induction you just have to get a little creative. Ted just look at HPF kit for E46!



yes I know I bumped this from the depths

I'd like to say the HPF intake manifold for the E46 had a worse cylinder to cylinder flow variance when compared to stock and improved flow by 1%

so meh

The HPF E46 M3 manifold in their turbo kit?

The stock M3 ITB setup isn't exactly lacking from the factory... One upping it would be an impressive feat so knocking on it for marginal flow gains isn't saying much. Distribution on the other hand is a tricky subject.

I think he was just pointing out that there are ITB + Forced Induction setups out there that work?

There are some Nissans that are turbocharged and used ITBs from the factory too.

R/T Ernie, you thinking of doing an ITB setup?

ITBs fall under the KISA principle.

Keep It Simply AWESOME!

But yeah, forget ITBs...barrel throttles are so much cooler anyway.
