Would be better off with throttle boddies. Carbs are old school but they dont give them same power.

do you have hands on experience of that superlite? or did you read it on the net somewhere?

throttle bodies are the best option but carbs could be fitted and running for under £200. can get similar gains to tb's but not as easy to live with or precise to set up.

Not played with carbs myself but we deal with alot of people who do. Carbs are a black art these days, you need to know what your doing. I think TBs are a more modern, reliable option.

But....im sure many old school tuners could prove me wrong
