I'll let you know in a couple of months - I've just fitted a set of JE 45mm's, now just waiting for a fuel rail to accomodate the bigger injectors, and off for a mapping session.

No. 7: IIRC from a chat with Mark Adams, even the older fuel rail isn't really a restriction. Certainly my fatter injectors have no trouble sucking through them

I've got the rail now, so if it looks too much of a pain to modify, I might go your route. Cheers.

Well if they were there for show, then maybe yes

But since I had to knock over half a bar off the fuel pressure to stop it over-fuelling, they're not for show...

What gains with big trumpets? What about looks . . . all depends on what kind of carb I guess.
