I'm certainly no ITB expert, but my thinking is NO, it doesn't add much benefit. I guess the fact that the throttle plates are downstream of the plenum would help throttle response, but you've still go the whole runner to fill when the throttle cracks open. Seems like you're only getting about 1/2 the benefit.

If the ITB experts come in here and say it does add enough benefit then that might be something I'll look into doing.

I don't follow your logic here.
