I\'d be very interested in your build should you go down the carb route, heard lots of good things about it. I was going to put twin 40 webbers on my old Nova GTE, i imagine a 13B on carbs would sound pretty sexual!

more sexual than a turbo....lol.............................( that\'s true...)

[MrHanky]

Will let you know what I decide to do.  Carb would be ideal as it should fall under budget and provide decent gains

You want a some 48\'s then

Single 48 or double?

[Brett]

Well double would look better :Giggle

Lol, single it is. There\'s a 48 Dellorto finishing soon on eBay. After that the main cost would be sorting out the manifold for it I guess

need  a UM from racing beat/mazdatrix

[MrHanky]

Might have found an RB one over in the US for a decent price
Also scouring Aus site for anything useful.
 
If he has got it, is that all I need to go carb?  The Dellorto im watching is a 48 with linkages etc.  Just needs stripping down as its not been used in a while.
 
Thanks

Also just found a modified Nikki with 6 port adapter etc over in Aus.  Going to buy something soon

Ignore this, just researched and would be a waste of time.
 
Biggest problem I think is finding something like a Weber or Dellorto that is already tuned for a 6 port as the tuning of the carb will be the hardest part otherwise.

Doesn\'t the guy a WGT know his stuff about carbs on a rotary, might be worth a quick chat with him?

not really, in the past, I used micro drill to drill out fuel jets and leave air jet alone.
a cutting of hard paper out of cornflake packet for the acc(sp) pump(delly only) to stuffing it up to increased (sp) more fuel into the engine.
for the weber, easypea to tune... but caana help you there to tune up for you cos I\'m up in scotland...

[RotorHeid]

benrx\'s right... Pip might helps.

Don\'t waste your time and money taking out the fuel injection.  Just remove the stock air filter.  On the exhaust remove the thermal brick and the remainder of the stock exhaust.  Find a second hand racing beat exhaust or similar.

The stock ecu will learn the new set-up, but you need to run it on a dyno.  This set-up in a dax rush gave 165 bhp at the wheels.  The first run on the dyno gave 120 bhp, by the third run (nothing else changed) i had 165 bhp.

As others have said get rid of weight and increase suspension control.

Remove the silencers.
There\'s an aussy chap who sells chips for EGI ECUs... I think Grinder had a link to him... Beyond that there\'s not much else you can do without risking the engine melting.

i do ?
