    well it's been ages since anything has happened.

    i'm on uni break now so time isn't really of any essence.

    megasquirt i've been kinda slack with, (read non existant) so i took another plunge of sorts.



    the whole idea with megasquirt was so that it could idle with throttle bodies, but hopefully with these it might do the exact same thing, only mechanically.

    it needs a couple of linkage pieces but after that.

    edit: i think i'm going to have to also play with the distributor. but that'll be a bit later

    i have seen in the past people machining out a carb to fit an injector to run it as an ITB...because he said about running MS i thought that was what he was doing lol

    all sorted now, back to the show

    hahaha. i just found out the most interesting fact..

    the guy at techtonics tuning who i ordered parts from was colin.

    apparently in the mid 90s, he ran a drag rabbit with and EV head on a 2.0 PL block with k-jet. the thing was stripped out to the max, like less than 700kg, but he was pulling high 12s on the 1/4 mile. holy jesus!!

    i feel like less of a man for not sticking with k-jet now.

    k-jet can work well, plenty of 2.0 16v's running back in the up between 180-200 bhp (@fly)
