Cool, because I urgently need one as a replacement and I <3 ITG.
How do I get on the preorder list because I really need one as soon as they are released...

Do we know a price yet? Or even a ballpark figure?

^^^ It's going to be a very similar price to the forge  :smiley:

....Around £300 then. :drinking: Cheers, Steve.

Ok, I logged blocks 31 and 32 as suggested in the other thread.

Lambda (Partial) - Self-Adaptation = 2.3%

Lambda (Idle) - Self-Adaptation = - 0.7 %

As for the "Lambda Sensor - Current Value" vs. "Lambda Sensor - Specified Value" this typically was within +/- 0.05 at most of the specified value expect when lifting off the throttle.

Hopefully this will mean something to the techies that have been requesting this  :happy2:

Out of curiousity Steve, what was the maximum Mass Air Flow (g/s) that you have logged? Not sure if you have this info from current logs?

So the ITG is somewhat 'sucky' in terms of noise, how does the forge compare, presumably its quieter ?

Any idea of a release date? I'm still after one quite urgently and if it's prone to be more like four weeks rather than (say) two I think I shall be forced to get the EVOMs (which would be sad, as I <3 ITG).

Forge is pretty quiet, but thats with my exhaust, which is louder than most.. It gives a nice sound, wouldn't say its much quieter than the open filters, a nicer sound in my opinion though..

Outside its loud..

Those figures are well within oem spec...   :happy2:

As Balicus said these figures are good  :happy2:

Your LTFT is Lambda (Partial) - Self-Adaptation = 2.3%.  This is a stock like figure and shows your ECU currently is not having to compensate for either too much or too little air coming in compared to what the MAF sensor is seeing.  Keep an eye on this over time and see if it changes.  If its staying the same it means the ECU has already stabalised and it looks like the MAF housing ITG have designed is flowing as the stock one would which is great as tuners such as APR and Revo leave the MAF scaling at stock unless you are going a BT.

How many miles have done with the ITG installed?

This can be logged by doing a WOT run through the rev range and logging block 002.
