nice specs! but why do you choose weber 45 carbs instead of Jenvey itbs or custom bike itbs? I think electronic injection can offer more control and options than carbs, if you go to stand alone injection it's better!

how much you lightened your flywheel? I am using an aluminium crank pulley 1kg lighter than the original and I feel a different response of the engine.

another question, why do you use forged pistons and rods? planning in turbocharging or supercharging or you used these components to raise the compression ratio?

and pics, we want to see pics fo the car! LOL

Yeah, nice work. True 16V love ;P What kind of pistons are you using(higher compression)? You seriuously are looking voor some extra HP what's your aim to get?
