Hi folks. I'm new here, and I have a custom built Lotus 7 type roadster with a 5-letter 13B. It is currently running a Holley 650 double pumper carb. I'd love to put fuel injection into this car - but I'm hesitant to spend real dollars on it. That said... I'd like to take some steps as to figure out what's involved and what the options are.

This engine was originally fuel injected (I assume) since it came from a GSL-SE car (this much I know). The car it's in has no real "wiring harness" or plumping for FI. It is more like a track car with a tube frame. There is electronic ignition in it now.

I see that there are MANY FI systems for this engine I COULD use. What's the simplest? What about the lowest cost? I have a set of tools and can do simple maintenance work on the car, but I'm not a "real" mechanic, and complicated stuff scares me a bit. The car is not a daily driver and I don't track it, but I want it to run well, start easily, and make good power.

If I did want to go with FI, what would make sense to install?

Thanks!

 

With scratch built autocross cars, supercharged rotaries seem to do the best. Road course, you're after a turbo or stay N/A. If you are on a budget, N/A is where you want to be. Turbo fueling and tuning etc will cost real dollars.

 

Thanks. I wasn't even thinking of forced induction - more of, which FI system would make sense? Thanks

 

there are plenty of choices, but the easy button is probably to use the Mazda intakes, and some aftermarket ecu.
i was going to recommend this https://speeduino.com/shop/plug-and-...speeduino.html it can be programmed to work, but they are out.

 

haha my bad

 

What is a 5 letter 13B?
