Induction Q

[mrCCC]

Looking through a demon tweeks cat and saw the BMC kit for 235 english pounds - does that kit come with every thing you need. Heard that you have to find a way of attaching it to the throttle body. What about k-tec I beleive that they were trying to get a viper kit together ?

Yeah, said itd be ready by May, try phoning them. I think the forced induction might be too much for my standard ECU to manage and not run lean, so keeping my PiperX till some1 else has tried it.

Ive not heard any stories about valvers running lean, just the 172/cups.

Have I missed something?

No, jus if the Viper works how it should then thats a lot of forced air over standard & i was told the 16v ECU works on a table relation to revs (or somethin along those lines), so it may need to be pumping more fuel at lower revs or somethin.

Maybe being paranoid but i read it somewhere & it makes sense.
