Pics of the downpipe:
lugs cut off the old flange and pipes cut too. Over sized pipes welded to the bottom of the flange at an angle to suit the existing system…
Because i moved the whole system backwards to fit the flange, i had to take a bit of length out of the centre section, fairly easy to do with a piece of over sized tubing to slot over the front pipe
some photos of the ibiza and the gold whilst jump starting
and a video more for the sound than anything

Love the modified exhaust much better that blowing 300 on a manifold.
I'll keep watching…

Coupla questions if I may…
1. Fuel return? You using a swirl pot or the like as it doesn't appear to or did you just get rid of fuel return?
2. Did your carbs have a funny little connector on the side (leccy), if so what on earth is it for?
Cheers,
Rich

and yes the carbs do have an electrical connector on the side…
- the connector is no use to the conversion… but on a bike presumably itd be a throttle position sensor
Good luck with the conversion

Thanks for that matey, sure does helps clarify a lot of things.
Now to get my manifold made… (the joys of not having a cross flow head, lol)
We shall win though

the 16v ecu runs the engine… and has absolutely nothing to do with any other part of the car

What have you done with crankcase breather? Have you fitted a filter to it?If so where did you get it?
You have a R1 fuel pump, how have you connected it up? Have you used an R1 fuel pump relay or have you done something else?
Thanks and keep up the good work.

the crank case breather has a pipe attached to it to direct a mini filter on the end upwards… this stops the oil in the crank from coming out of the filter itself and just the gasses come out
Think i bought it from ebay or halfords??
Fuel pump can be wired to ign live, or to the existing fuel pump wiring… either works… i imagine the r1 relay would do the same job as a normal relay so i just did that…
you dont need injection wiring if its on carbs? I just removed it all back through the bulk head… I did cable tie it all up there unless i could remove complete wires by a plug or spade terminal for neatness.
I left what would have required to be chopped incase anyone in the future decided to do otherwise.
And no you dont need the airmass sensor.
Carbs are the simplest thing in the world theyve nothing complicated wiring wise to them
