What?s the next step for my car i have a E16SE with a camshaft, ported and polish head and a K&N filter.

- Chip (7200rpm);

- Exhaust system (4-1);

- Light fly wheel (about 1 kilo);

Get a good system, a 4 branch manifold will work well.

Then get the flywheel lightened, take it to a performance engine engineer and they will know how much you can take off of it.

Weber 40's or throttle bodies.

I agree get Weber or Dellorto 40's, should go well with your exisiting set up + the 4-2-1 branch exhaust manifold and a full exhaust system. Don't bother with the chip!

Yes i agree with you people BUT the chip is 190€ and the carbs is a lot more expensive.
Were can i get a 4-1 manifold here in Portugal i can?t get one, only if i ask a exhaust shop to made one for me but doesn?t look very good their work.
Thanks at the moment my car is in a mecanic is changing the valve springs and doing the service, after that i will do something for more power, does any one here on this forum have a E16SE with a chip?

If yes, what it fell like?

preprogrammed chips are a waste of time

you may as well manually advance the timing at the dizzy and turn the fuel pressure up with an adjustable regulator as you'd get similar gains

might wanna look into megasquirt as a fully mappable system - you should be able to do that for your budget but to be honest carbs are the way to go

they sell for ?200 ish normally just need a manifold and setting up

Yes, get hold of some Webber or Dellorto 40's , prehaps try ebay ?

Then after that, you could try getting some moderate bottom end work done ? rebore, ovwersized pistons, ARP bolts, it doesn't really cost that much.
