im thinking about a new project and was wondering of the stock S4 turbo will clear the racing beat 6-port intake?

thanks

 

Er, you mean their carb?

 

yeah, the intake for a holley......

I dont have the intake laying around to mock up


anyone?

 

From my memory...I think it will fit in stock positon, if not, mounted more towards the front of the car.


Edit: Did a little more thought, and I think it sticks out too far to possibly fit in the stock position. Talk to DirectFreak, he would know for sure.

 

ok thanks....hey DirectFreak wanna chime on in?

 

Maybe an exhaust spacer if it doesnt fit normally? Of course then you would have to fab other stuff.

 

It does replace the LIM correct?

I hope a carb person chimes into this conversation .

 

i dont mind if i have to use a spacer, or maybe even clock the compressor housing, or even grind some stuff....just wondering if has clearance without major modifications


anybody out there?

 

okay i have to ask, why would you go out of your way to get a carb on a turbo engine? tuning it with EFI would be 3764372864372846237842373428 times easier. that is unless you like changing jets....

 

engine swap in a german car....dont wanna deal with the german bullcrap wiring. Trying to put it together from what i have laying around. fun project, but on a budget....come on i have a 94 R2....im broke!!!!!!!!!

 

since directfreak has a 1st gen i doubt he will. Try sending him a pm

 

Just talk to Robert of Rotary Shack, he does alot of boost prepped carbs.

 

thanks guys

 

I am about 80% positive that you will either have to use an exhaust spacer to get this to work on the carb'd engine.

 

I've tried it and it DOES NOT fit . you will need a spacer for the exhaust manifold .

 

will the racingbeat flange be enough?

this help alot, thanks evryone
