A TwinSpark probably. Cheap and reliable.
with the twin spark what sort of induction system is best?? allot of people i have spoken too have just suggested fitting twin carbs. or quad throttles?
With good headers and a well designed induction system an increase of at least 25 hp is achievable on a well tuned 8V TS engine above its road going configuration.
Cheapest-carbs
Best-TB's need ECU's, trigger wheels, looms, plus, plus.$$
It wont end there because once you have more power, you will need better cornering traction from a slippery diff so you need to fit a twin spark tranny and you'll probably need to have the LSD refreshed and so the budget just keeps climbing.
Think through what it is you really want..
thanks for the help. i need all the advice i can get thankyou.
