Currently have a 2.2E/S with Webers. It runs well and makes good power, having been tuned on the dyno and further dialed in since then, but I have discovered I'm just not a carburetor person. Fuel economy isn't good enough for the size of engine/car, and the emissions bother me—both in terms of the smells in my garage and while driving the car. And yes, we've been totally spoiled by low emissions cars.
What I'm curious about, for anyone who has lived with carbs and MFI: Is MFI noticeably cleaner and/or more efficient than carbs? Or is EFI the way to go? I'm in no hurry on this, but curious for the experiences of others. Yes, Motronic, but I actually like the 2.2 engine. Thanks! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

I paid $300 for 8 low mileage Suzuki ITBs, with throttle cables and sensors. Then made adapters to attach them directly to the heads. They also needed spaced out more, so I also made spacers and lengthened the throttle mechanisms and fuel rails. Those ITBs are Keihin, so a ton of injector options. Honda S2000 injectors would work great for a 3 liter engine. The throttle cables are perfect length for both to attach to the lever bell crank on top of the engine.
Concur with lack of hardening on megasquirt. |
