I've currently got a D15B7 engine in my coupe but I'm looking at fitting a D16Z6 engine in its place. I really want to fit the OBX ITB's, and was wondering if I can fit a turbo kit aswell with the TB's.
It sounds like good fun to me, and if there is a way to do it then I may give it a go

You could, but it kind of defeats the purpose IMO. If you have an unlimited budget and want to build the most costly boosted sohc ever, then why not. But I'd stick to a regular intake manifold and throttle body and spend the ITB $$ on forged internals, head work, better turbo, suspension... anything will get you more for your money than ITB's when you're already boosted. Not to mention avoiding the hassle of trying to tune such an elaborate setup.

It is possible but will need lots of tuning to get it to run right. here are a couple threads with info for you.

You'd need a manifold for the throttle bodies like the silvertop 4AGE.
Pretty pointless for anything other than bragging. ITBs themselves are pretty pointless.
