Please explain. Or rather any pics of the intake manifold?

[snm95ls]

IIRC, it was a DPFI manifold that either had an adapter plate and/or had been worked over.

Looks like too much carb to me, just a Holley on a DX manifold. I hope it is a 350 cfm 2 bbl as a D15 @ 8500 rpm and 100% VE only needs 320 cfm and the VE is likely only 70% with that choker of an intake manifold.

As Fowee, he has seen the car and talked to the old man.

BTW it was also for sale but now that ECTA is gonna have a local even in Ohio next year, the old man might run it.

sweet jesus!!!!!!!

Looks like a bit more than just a carb. Seems to me the cylinder to the left of the car (on firewall) has the letters "NX" on it...

That system hasn't been used yet. With the choked off DPFI intake manifold I hope he doesn't try it either.

The motor was built by comptech in the late 90's.  It's a small journal d15 16v with a nasty cam.  The cam doesn't pull any vacuum n comes alive around 6k.  Schoney said he knew he could make it run with a carb, and at the time the car was built there were not any cost effective rom editors that could do alpha-n/tps map blending.  Like Bone said, he hasn't hit the bottle yet.  And I hope he changes the hg before doing so, 'cause it's a composite felpro. 

I'll talk about it a bit more later, work is a little busy for me right now...

[Foowee]

I don't remember how many cfm the carb flows...  Panda-hatch from honda-tech might remember, he was with me when we looked at the car.

[crttaz]

it only comes in 350 or 500 CFM versions IIRC, 350 CFM is plenty big enough but would still need major jetting changes.

What you're saying is it needs a Vickie-X, direct port, and fuel injection.

it would still be n/a

Technically, not with the nitrous.  The header on it's not designed for the nitrous, sadly, so there's only so much you can spray.

100 shot per liter on a built motor that will breath/flow is about the limit. At that point the carbs are not really needed.

Well, that's the limit of your understanding of the situation anyway.

When pushing the limits of nitrous on a given platform, your camshaft selection dictates whether the motor eats or lunches.  Lots of exhaust duration with minimum overlap, size the exhaust primaries and collectors big, and proceed to fuck up people's preconceived notions.
