I'm sure people will disagree but I find the carb setup better than the fuel injection. I'm running keihin zx636 carbs from a mid 90s bike with 180 main jets. The engine has high lift cams, fully polished and flowed ports and the crank has been balenced and it's putting out about 180bhp.
Thats epic, thats mega spec for an 800kg car! bet thats a ball of fun to drive! Like a go-kart! lol
I've been looking between the ZX9R or the R1 carbs mainly or sticking to standard management, but no idea which route to follow, High Lift cams will happen at a later date but to start with to get it running i think i'm gonna go standard setup just gas flow the head and get a decent setup for carbs.

That sounds good but personally I think your better on a abf with smaller 600cc bike carbs. People will tell you that you need to change to the kr dizzy and stuff but don't listen to them as it sparks great with the abf dizzy and standard management just make sure the manifold can take a balance bar to plug a vacuum to the brake servo but more importantly to the abf ecu. This will save hours of work and hundreds of pounds.

i'll also be going for a bias pedal box so will be no servo in the car so not sure how that will work.
I will have to do more research. =]

ah fair i havent fully looked into that yet but what i was planning was carbs and doing away with the ECU management and using a facet pump and fuel pressure control etc.

If you don't have a servo then no need to worry and if doing away with management them megasquirt is the way to go!!
