Max, to be honest I was envisioning folks that have installed a TS in their street car replying. However, it is also good to know they hold up well in racing mode. Did you by any chance use Jim Kartalamakis's book as a reference guide when bringing your engine up to 198BHP? I have his second (and first) book and he really is a Weber fan.

Do you care to 'share' any of the specs of your modifications to get the increased HP, or at least point to the general area of your major modifications? It seems to be pretty much a given the head gets the majority of attention on a nord engine set up for racing. Of course you made mods to the head, but I have to assume far fewer than one would on a nord engine - or not?

While not the stock Motronic, but I'd think fuel injection would be one of the ways to increased HP, even more so than 45's. But hey, I'm here to learn.

One of my goals with this thread is to take TS swaps out of being a secret society - with each TS owner/modifier being their own secret society. If I had one in a race car I might be relunctant to share detailed info, but for the non-race folk, why not give details of yours so others 'in the same boat' can benefit?
