oddballrovers Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Owl & Philbert - crikey, I've got a queue now! I'll do some thinking and work out some numbers, not having a 2.25 here to "prototype" on may complicate things a little, if you were able to get the adapter plate as per Edward's post made up and bolt the TBI on so you're happy with it it would save me a lot of faffing this end. Perhaps it's worth doing a forum group buy and getting a few made? I'm more than happy with wiring, plumbing, and tuning though. Hi Fridge. I would also like to jump on the train if possible please , mine is a 2,5 Petrol later a 2,95 Petrol, I have thought about MS for a long time but ended up with to many Question marks so had actually almost jumped to DTA wich I know. But the price on the MS really do attract me. Kind regards Ole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
