It performed well on a friends 5 but he needed 20 euros of petrol just to warm up the engine.:D

Another friend used twin carbs in order to boost over 0.9 bar on a volvo turbo lump(new word for me!) in order to overide the 0,9 limitation of the ecu.Quite primitive solution to go from injection to carb but it worked.:D

I always fancied a play with one of those carburettors. Which twin choke carburettor is it that Miller uses, are they not both Lancia Delta turbo carb's ?

Bluefish, I offer modified Volvo turbo ECU's with the boost limit removed. too late now :D

that's because twin webbers are nothing to do with a twin choke webber :)

unless someone pulled a fast one and sold him a twin choke webber for his Nova, and the rest is just down to ignorance.

whats the diff between twin choke webbers and twin webbers?

they where already fitted to the nova, i thought you just got diff ones i.e. 40s etc?

just thought as 5's had chokes as do novas they would both use webbers but not the case

twin choke means 1 carb(with 2 barrells)! twin webbers means 2 carbs!!( 4 barrells)

They can be a pain in the ass to set up properly aswell, was there not a set on flea bay a while ago complete with mainfold ?
