I am tempted to go down this route myself,at the mo I am running twin 40 webbers on a rs1600i engine,but they are not a matched pair and cough and splutter a bit on take off and are a nightmare for a couple of miles from cold.Still they were even worse before the tune up.I have been doing some reading up on the subject on the megasquirt forums,but all of the sensors and toothed wheels and stuff looks a bit daunting.Mine has had the twin coils and stuff replaced with a dizzy.The bike carb option looks a bit more doable but where would you get something like that set up surely the car based rollers wouldnt stock bike carb jets or would they?.confused

They are throttle boddies and not carbs so you would need an ECU to control the injection as well as the ignition

Sorry I didnt make that very clear
I realise they are throttle bodies,What I meant was going down the bike carb route looked a bit easier to understand (if i could get them jetted)as apposed to the throttle body route which as you say would need an ECU etc
