    Thi thing was the inspiration to run my first 86 on carbs, good to see your still driving and motivated. Do you notice much of a difference from the extra comp of the 20v bottom end?

    Honestly i dont think any of my 16v's have been any good for long enough to get a good idea. just a constant decay of power over time lol.

    No one's ever been able to tune the carbs half decent, then shortly after 3 and 4 cyl's would compression. then it would sound like a WRX (fun rocking up to poser meets haha) and i would get cranky.

    Carbs both had bent throttle shafts, one was able to be straightened but the other was ridiculous (the one running 3 and 4)

    What was basically happening is 3 and 4 were just doing ALL the work, until they gave up, then 1 and 2 would take over lol.

    It sure does feel alot more torqey than it ever has been, like i can actually pick up speed at only 3000~ revs in 4th or 5th up decent hills!

    Will see how it goes on the track methinks

    Again though, i wish i had a reliable setup before so i could of laid down some times to compare to

    maybe do them black since you still street drive it to make it look a bit higher? would prefer to see the sills match the body though
