Any FI gurus out there.

If I build a larger Type IV would it be possible to adapt the stock 2.0L intake to supply air. Tuning induction is kind of a mystery to me and I need some info. I understand that runner length and diameter and plenum volume are all important. Also engine displacement and cam duration and target RPM are important.

So, for the fun of it. Is it possible to use 2.0L intake on a 2270 with a Web Cam 163/86b. Target RPM 5000.

Doing a little dreaming here, hope to learn something too.

CB performance makes a ITB set up but its not very tuneable. The stock runners and set up will work upto a 2.4L (suppling air). Everything I know and have heard is that the cam and heads is where the gains are to be made. The Djet cam is soo mild but that gives it that flat broad torque curve which is good. Add a higher lift cam will move the powerband up away from 2500-4500rpms so what is your objective?? Better springs will help with the revs, porting the heads will help the flow too. I used 38mm exhaust valves to help the exhaust flow.

Too radical of a cam and the car will not be too friendly in the street. Some of these wild cam motors that have tons of hp at 6500rpms are a pain to drive inthestreet!

Again, what is your goal for the car?

If you want tons of hp (140-180) go the six route so you can drive the car on the street. A modest increase of hp over stock (15-20) is fun without too much pain for a street car.
