I'm installing a MicroSquirt system.
This thread IS NOT A MS/SDS/Carb DEBATE! If you don't like MS please leave. I'm tired of the endless, worthless debate. Anyway, now on the the fun stuff! I am using the TPS off of a Volvo 850 because it's a Bosch sensor (I like sticking with OEM manufacturers when possible), fits the D-shaft throttle and is appropriate for MS. I made the adapter plate today. Attached image(s) |

Modern fuel injection is the way to go. My trip to WRC was just over 2000 miles and I averaged 25 miles per gallon with my 3.2. My other car with a 2.2 liter type IV engine with Weber 44idf carbs gets about 18 MPG!!?? Go figure. I'd love to get rid of the Webers and replace them with fuel injection. Keep us informed how this works out for you Mark.
Cheers, Elliot |

your webers need work, my 56 oval gets 26 mpg with dual DRLAs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ...and runs 12's.
