Hi All -
Got a line on a rebuilt 2.7 out of a 1977 911S. It is 100% complete including the full CIS system. What kind of power loss would I experience if I stripped off the CIS and went with carbs? The motor is only 165hp to begin with... Thanks! Scott S |

This is a good discussion....
I have carbs. I like them, but have thought about something different for Huey and relatively daily street use. I'd like to stay away from CIS - heard too many horror stories Not big on MFI just because again, it seems a bit more tempermental So what's the deal with EFI? what are the choices, costs, peoples experiences, etc? Not something that's happening anytime soon, but just for info... |

Not something that's happening anytime soon, but just for info... If I hit the lotto...... Jeff Gamroth has an EFI set-up that produces an astounding amount of HP & torque. http://rothsport-racing.com/ Our latest Parade AX winner has this set up on his car, a 2.8L, and makes 285 HP and is tuned for autocross. G Fordahl told me that they gained 30ft/lbs of torque across the range but only 10 HP....they bumped it back for more torque. How about an all stock internal 3.0L @ 250 hp.....the EFI & exhaust are the only changes...the motors are blueprinted, of course. Around 8k installed & dynoed, I understand. |
