dang... 86 carburated engine. That's a hard one. I have no clue whatsoever... maybe cuz the fact there is no 86 carburated rx7. But besides that... why do you need to know how it looks? is yours messed up or something?

Use any 2 cycle oil with the TWC -3 (letters might be off) stampped on the bottle. The mix will be 1oz of 2 stroke oil per 1 gallon of gas.

If this is a 4 port turbo engine (which it likely is), then remember that your compression is only 8.5 (or 9.0 for S5). You'll be down on power...Even more so with that carb.

WHY?!?!?

Any first hand experience?

Damn, PR's fastest street FB\FC are running carb; it doesn't mean they can't be faster with a stand alone, but carb vs stock EFI...

The compression cuts power, not the premix.

I am an EFI thumper all the way. Superior in every way. Stock ECU with an S-AFC is the way to go if you're looking for low cost. Aftermarket EFI is worlds better then any carb.

True, however a stock ecu sith an SAFC won't touch a carb FC. Stating the following:
