Hi
New member here with a new to me bad ass
914 ( big /4) with webbers

I just bought the tangerine throttle linkage
To replace the home made linkage that was on there and did work well for a while

I know that if it’s from tangerine it should be quality

But I also ordered this induction from Germany

Anyone have this ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)
And will it clear the tangerine throttle linkage ???

Who I’m sure would be turning in his grave knowing I spent 999 euros on a intake ������

Most CASoB 914 owners don’t like dropping over 1k on airfilters that look kinda cool. I wonder how the conical filter flow compares to a set of plain paper filters for dual carbs. Is the filter pictured a ‘tosser’ or a ‘cleaner’ when it gets fouled? If a tosser, what is the replacement cost?

I’m sure it’s a tosser

I’m sure it’s a tosser

And I’m sure this is quieter then just air clearers on the carbs

1. Assuming its just the filter assembly it should work fine with the linkage, only issues you might have with the linkage are going to be around what throttle bodies are used.

2. If you really want to drop a lot of money on a cool/central air filter for a dual carb/TB setup I think these are the way to go

I saw these before I pulled the trigger

I’m just not a fan of the look
and it costing even more
