mr E34 11 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 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?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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