Question Rover Inlet and IACV's?!?!

Anyone got an idea as to how to plumb up a IACV to the rover tomcat manifold?
Don't want to use that nasty ass rover throttle body either, was thinking of mounting the st170 throttle body.. what do you think?


cheers

I'll prob just leave it off then, this is my first turbo build so i'm worrying about everything. the purpose of the iac is to heat the engine up to normal temperature as quick as poss to avoid engine damage, do you reckon it actually makes a dam bit of difference haha
