blimey ,so far thats a lot more even than i was expecting after looking at the siamese injection variation ... maybe a carb runs more evenly over the 4 cylinders than mpi.

It's a pity that you do not have a "never burnt a piston" option, so that others that use injection can see the results *happy*
