And the cost effective way for the 32v engine is to install E39 M5 ITBs as per the below video...

Comfortably with USD1800 as a complete kit with trumpets and linkage. Just add injectors...

Three Wheelin'
I understand the mindset of "Cheap and Easy" is like a religion with bravado that scoffs at such old fashioned ideas such as workmanship and design. I'm still drawn to finely crafted machines in the same way I came to Porsche 928s in the first place.
I won't say anything more about modern society's trend toward "Cheap and Easy", it could really snowball into a juicy topic that's more about society than Chevy motors and adapted ITBs.
My ITBs are designed for the 928. They are sized for a "ported" 928 head and have a transition into the port shape and a straight runner with optimal taper. The taper itsself and trumpet shape are very important and I know from experience how they must be.
Any adapted setup is using ITBs from something else is too small for the 32v 928 and have compromises because they use adapters.
You are not going to get a better set of ITBs for the 928 than these. I may make 2 more sets in the future if someone wants to create a serious machine.

- stock 5.0L with stock exhaust
- Stock 5.0L with larger exhaust and headers (a la Doc Brown's)
Are there any different tuning considerations with this set-up?
