Las boriquas dont really tell their setup. Its hard as **** to get info on the car so you basically have to find it from someone who knows the setup. I would also like to know what they are running, I also want to know what exactly chivy king is using tambien

I found this pic of his engine bay.
And you thought your modified engine bay was "uncluttered" with your tiny wankel in there... pffft!

It's an old pic by the way (3.5 years ago) I'm sure the set up has changed. He's almost a full second faster now than he was then.

he was and i believe is still running an old cartech 2TC blow through webber system. i doubt he's using it on an old 4 port though, probably adapted to an RE or REW motor now.
