Ignition System ??

Recommended Posts

Might be a dumb question, but why go to all the trouble of link etc etc and not run fuel injection which can be tuned on dyno etc. Surely fuel injection/timed is more precise than old carbs??

Glenn wants to do something different. We are both old school gits and believe there is no better sound generated than that of six side-by-side ram-tubed carburettors with mouths wide open absolutely screaming for MORE AIR!!!!

Better than sex... :P

I know where you guys are coming from but the more 'logical' (used loosely)is to fit up individual throttle bodies (fantastic sound) with a fully mapped ecu. You can never tune carbs across the rev range like fuel injection, only my opinion.

Nah, a car(not even an M) can never substitute for a women!! post-1048-1201988631_thumb.jpg

p.s. not unless you sell me your 325i Touring!

Haha, at least when my car is screaming away in extasy, all I have to do to shut it up is turn off the ignition, peace and quiet and NO COMPLAINING!!!! :P

Those Headers are beautiful!

Wish i had the room to fit those in the 535is.

Did they fit headers in your Motorsport 540is 6 speed Cain?
