dean 0 Posted November 13, 2007 hi is any one running 45 webers on a gti-6 engine if there are what power are you getting and is it worth doing it as ihave looked into supercharging and turboing my engine but is all a bit too much right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danpug 1 Posted November 13, 2007 I've seen a few with this conversion. There is somebody on here with this setup but i can't remember his name right now! Should produce plenty of grunt but i expect it'll drink fuel too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dean 0 Posted November 13, 2007 do you have any idea what power he is running with them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danpug 1 Posted November 13, 2007 I couldn't tell you but i've remembered it was matt holley, heres a thread: http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?s...;hl=gti6++carbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alastairh 47 Posted November 13, 2007 Not exactly the same. But Kate runs Puma bodies on standard GTI6 engine along with an emerald. Dave mapped it a couple months ago and made 192 bhp. But behaves nicely every day, and returns good fuel economy because of the management. Al Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bales 1 Posted November 13, 2007 Isn't running carbs on a gti-6 a bit of a backwards step anyway given that they are on a coilpack as standard?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Holley 11 Posted November 13, 2007 Yes I am running twin dellortos on mine, it pulls well from low down and makes a great noise It made 150bhp atw when set up which for a standard engine is good I really like it, this is my second gti6 with carbs but this time I did it properly and used a dta ignition ecu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sandy 189 Posted November 13, 2007 Mapped ignition is important to getting the best out of it. I mapped Matt's and it wouldn't have been possible to give it the ignition cruve to make it as grunty and flexible as it is, with a mechanical distributor.

dean 0 Posted November 13, 2007 it save putting it on a dizzy you can leave it on a mappable ignition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 189 Posted November 14, 2007 Re-mapping the standard ECU will set you back about £500, a programmable ECU with mapping would cost about the same and would have easy re-mapping and secondhand value. I know which I would be doing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dean 0 Posted November 14, 2007 maybe it would cost that much if you dot no some one but as i no some one he will do it for about 130 so thats not to bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
