Personally, I'd get bike throttle bodies and save your money on Jenveys!

You'll need

* MegaSquirt Engine Loom!!!
* injectors + fuel rail - GSXR 750 is good
for 200hp - so ya can keep them if ya
want
* wideband O2 sensor (purchase or
borrow)
* laptop
* Fuel swirl pot
* High pressure pump

Just helped mate get Pinto injected on bike TB's and running with wideband... its ace.. My zetec should be up and running in 2 weeks ;-)

Cheers

Murray

Er - how would bike throttle bodies stop you passing the SVA

who told ya that big load of bollox???

They are more than suitable for the job, if connected properly.

Somebody's having you on mate...

So you missed this on Ebay?

Bike tb alternative at half that price (also just missed - but make your own even cheaper) here

Suzuki gsxr 600 tb's generally are around the £75 mark, so if you can make your own manifold, you're quids in

Hmm Kris

You're confusing the issue here ;-)

Bike Throttle Bodies with Injection

Bike Carbs

I believe are 2 separate items.

I listed what you'd need for the first:

* MegaSquirt Engine Loom + Megasquirt

£200ish

* TB's + injectors + fuel rail - GSXR 750 is good
for 200hp - so ya can keep them if ya
want

Around £100

* wideband O2 sensor (purchase or
borrow)

Loan is £20 ish (Bill Shurvinton)

* laptop

???
* Fuel swirl pot

£40 ebay guy makes em

* High pressure pump

£40 Ebay guy sells em

* Manifold

£200 ish

So budget for about £650 for the complete works

That's £1000 cheaper than Jenveys

Cheers,

Murray

sorry thought i may be confusing every body! ..forget what i said!!

To the above anyway..That sounds resonable, the only thing is i dont know which throttle boddies i need exactally...although you said the GSXR 750, are the 600's no good as only ones on ebay at the moment!

I could get a manifold made by a friend of mine, do i just need the boddies no extra linkages or anything!

Go for the 750's

The standard injectors are good for 200hp!!!

A decent BlackTop should make 178-182 at the flywheel (in standard trim) with Bike Throttle Bodies.

So well within the range.

Ring around some breakers - Ebay tends to be a little extortionate at the moment

If you're getting a custom manifold made up and not respacing them for a DCOE manifold, then year doesn't matter.

Some have 2 sets of butterflies - just remove the second stepper-driven set and fill the holes.

All covered before...

Does the engine know the origins of what is trying to choke its need to breathe?
