Re: cold-air intake & 4g32 carby options
ok thanks guys, i'll see if i can find some good condition down-draughts a bit bigger then the current carby, and go from there. 75wagon , no the 40DCOE didn't have manifolds, which i understand will make the idea cost a great deal more. yeah the next things i'm getting for my car is new wheels and ...

Re: cold-air intake & 4g32 carby options
i just found 2 40DCOE Webers for $200 for the pair. that's not overly expensive.
what do you mean the 40s will get choked down? would a smaller size be more effective?

Re: new to this site, old school car enthused, ready to drive!
yeah, should i get the current carby reconditioned or buy a $50-$300 new/rebuilt one(or 2 for twins).
seen as my carby is stuffing up a bit.
i get like 10L/100km when i drive efficiently and there are flat spots all over the revs.

cold-air intake & 4g32 carby options
it seems to me by all the photos i've seen on here that nobody uses cold-air intake, they just have the air filters anywhere in the engine bay with no majorly direct air flow. i just don't get it, i thought cold-air intake is gives slight increase in power and efficiency, and allows more compression...

Re: new to this site, old school car enthused, ready to drive!
you can charge anything, it would just have to run low boost because it's an old and wornish engine, but if the internals are forged it should be alright for a little more boost... i'm only hoping for like 100kw at the wheels, and 220kw max, i don't want or need anything over that. it's for drifting...
