·A VW friend of mine is trying to talk me into bossing my spare intake for CIS fuel injectors and running a GTI fuel injection system. It actually doesn´t sound like a bad idea, better fuel distribution, no carb issues, and since it is all mechanical injection, no wiring harnesses to worry about, the only custom things I´ll have to do are add an electric fuel pump, make a fuel pump blockoff plate, run a cable from the linkage to the throttle body, have the manifold bossed for injectors and get a shop to create the adapter to mount a throttle body on the manifold... possibly a 90 degree to mount the tb forward to make it easier to run the intake tube. The hardest part I really see is finding a mounting point for the airbox/fuel distributer and possibly needing custom lenght fuel injector lines.
I figure I could do it for $150-200 including all machine work and parts from the yard.
Does this sound like an idea worth pursuing? It would definately be cheaper than a webber 40 carb and is very adjustable for fuel mixture (turn an allen in the fuel distributer).
