I'm not sure off the top of my head. Lately, a popular option seems to be GSXR1000 throttle bodies, but I don't think I've heard of anyone using bike carbs. No

Its all in the manifold, but having the right bodies helps, gsxr are good for 220 on a tu5j4, i think i have seen 240 on a 2.2 xu

Please drop the txt speak.

Yes you will need an aftermarket ecu like a dta s40 or omex 600

You can remap the std. ecu but its much better with a DTA/Omex. lm running a remaped ecu in my s16 with bodies, but will be changed with a DTAs40 very soon.

Difference in the main is that Jenveys bolt straight on and work reliably, bike bodies need mounting, setting up and plenty of buggering around to make a throttle linkage that's reliable.

you don't need a linkage Dave, just fit a quadrant and bracket off colin, no w**ky linkages.

setting up takes no more than jenveys, Jenveys need a fair bit of buggering about with the balancing to get right even with new ones, bike bodies take less time as they are far superior quality being an o.e manufactured item, as long as you have the mounting system sorted it wont take long.

with jenveys you don't need a linkage either, just use the direct pull version and make an outer cable stop.

I know how to do that, you know how to do that, but we are hands on people. Plenty of ropey bike body installations would suggest there are people out there who aren't that handy. All I'm saying is the Jenvey stuff bolts together like Meccano and works easy.

Incidentally I found balancing a little fiddly the very first time I tried but if you have one of those carb balancing air flow meters its easy as pie (I did it by listening with a hose pipe in each pair of trumpets first time around ans was close, but the meter made it spot on)
