    Prima racing bike carbs conversion???

    Has anyone had anything to do with these?im on about ordering them tomorrow but just wanted to no if they are any good
    although prima told me these are better than inj t/bs
    also i will no longer run my ecu and what will control my ignition curve etc?

    thanks

    hi mate they are no way better than throttle bodies as they aren,t as controllable.

    what sort of money are they...

    I thought that-but they are going to say that tho int they
    my brothers just brought a complete kit for his 205 gti (R1 carbs)and the chap he got them off had a clip on his phone...he nailed his mate in a skyline!! anyway prima quoted me 800 quid for the full kit,inc 2 fuel regs,bracket for the alternator,t/cable,4 kawazaki carbs+ filters,breathers and a est power fig of 180-190 bhp + i have piper cams and pullies.or forget it all and get a loan and by a 400brake cossie!

    not bad for that sort on money as throttle bodies are twice that.

    but will need setting up and a tuning session as well

    800quid is fair enough but isn't it a bit of a step back in some ways?

    Also, its not going to be the neatest...the other clio i saw with that kit on had a square section cut out of the bonnet to aid clearance - not that attractive IMO!

    loving the fact they have a half used loom cable tied up!

    Theres alot more DIY to it than they will let on...I bet the just supply the manifold and a few accesories.

    For 800 you could get a manifold made, and fit an ign only ecu...
