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 have essentially the same setup as Steve in my 914 using the Rasant harness and the AEM infinity EMS.
As far as maximizing power and tune ability this is the only way to go. Also, by far the cheapest option to go to twin plugs. Definitely not cheap though. Attached thumbnail(s) Attached image(s) |
