What size is your engine? Everyones gonna tell you T40s so i'll beat them to it

Go for T40s mate. ::

[addgsi]

its a 16 gsi carbs are a bit costly at the mo tryin to get a house other wise twin 40s would be a must :D

Lol,
To start with rip that carb off, and put he EFI system back on :wink:
The standard MPI system is miles better than a single carb, you will be losing power with that carb fitted.
Either go t40s.
Or put the MPI system back on.

Just leave it as an injected unit. Far simplier. As for the house, me knows. Signing the mortgage on Thursday!! ::

thirded, EFI is the way to go on that motor unless your gonna go for ITB's

single carbs are a useless waste of time and when the engine comes with EFI theres no point removing it to fit some shite old carb

and dont start with the crap that its difficult to wire in an EFI system, its 6 wires a fuel pump and tank, not the most challenging of operations ever

[maxpaine]

you can put mre power than 2x40's whit EFI bur you have to do some thing inside it

Temper temper. Just think, we all need help with things as well, something we're misguided and need help from others, please bare that in mind before shouting at us and making us cry like bitches, sniff, sniff!!!! :oops:

the EFI loom needs an ignition live and a permenant live which can easily be obtained from the battery and ignition barrel

it also has outputs for tacho on dash, engine management light and fuel pump

the facet redtop is no use for an EFI engine as its not high enough pressure

either find a GTE/GSi/SRi tank and GTE/GSi/SRi pump

or get a 1.2i tank and fit a mpi pump from a cav/astra/corsa etc to it

the engine loom is self contained, it connects to all the injectors/sensors/dizzy/coil etc, the only connections back to the car are those listed above which are on a multiplug that sits next to the wiper motor
