TWM has Weber style throttle bodies with bosses for EFI injectors. They work extremely well Marc should consider some for his turbo project but, that would mean re-doing all his fuel line work. Here is the link: http://www.twminduction.com/Throttle...leBody-FR.html

I know they have the TBs, lumenition and closer to home..german VGS also have them but they are very expensive and would require injectors, fuel rails, ECM, new pressure reg. and what not. I got tired of EFI and like old school stuff like these carbs, mech. injection and lucas stuff. NO EFI for me for a while at least.

Here's a couple of pics of a IDF VGS setup:











my favorite...with carbon stacks
