I've been told lots of autocrossers with 914's use baffles in their carbs.
I have been asking around and have only had a reply form a person on the East coast. Is anyone using them on the West coast? If so what are the pros and cons? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Paul,
The problem is: most people are fuel injected and not carbed. I can only think of 5 cars total at the Alameda AutoX who had carbs and 2 out of the 5 where not running at the end of the day (5 cars total including 911's) Ask Bill what he is running next after blowing up his 2.7 at Buttonwillow a few weeks back. (injection) JP Stein is one of the very few people on this BBS who runs carbs on a 2.7 and autoX's his car more than 4 times a year. Very little difference between your car and his car as far as engines and setup goes. JP does have a much better ignition system, but even that is up for debate over the setup you have. B |
