i told you guys the blowthrough kits are easy to install! Eddie has been tring to get his car running with the factory EFI for months with no luck, he got the blowthrough goodies and had his car running in a week!
as soon as you put a straight through downpipe on there the car is really going to wake up! looking good Eddie! Who is next!

Ryan,

Let me know if you need help or anything setting up your turbo. I had a blow through Mikuni setup years ago.

oh come on guys, the wiring is not that bad!!! It took me about a week to do my harness, and thats only working on it 2 hours a day.

The carb setup does look good man. I'm wondering how well the performance stacks up against the stock TII EFI system. I honestly dont know which one would be better.

Get that thing on the dyno!

IMO, carb is a lot more easier, cheaper and faster. However FI is more drivable and with the right electronics can be faster (but more expensive). At that point it might be cheaper going standalone.

i think the carb is better because you dont have to deal with sensors and the stinky AMF, plus you can tune it for better results and is cheaper that a halteck. and i think my car is faster that a turbo II

i will as soon i find a dyno up here. i want to know how much i have
