    Sorry, i should have chose my original words more wisely.

    k-jet mechanical injection is late 70's technology, obviously you guys have proved that lots of power can be made using k-jet,

    but its still an old design with much more modern and more effeceint systems available(althou this cost)

    my car abf mk3 made 180bhp with just a panel filter and cat pipe and full system.
    the rollers where pretty acurate, there was a 9a with schricks gas flowed head and some other stuff running k-jet which made 184bhp.

    your powers are good but do you think they would be more peak, or better through mid range with a mappable management?
    i know this would cost alot more than sticking with k-jet, but the orginal question was running t/b with k-jet which would cost.

    it'd be a fun experiment, and i reckon it would work, but whether it would be worth doing...........
