    ive seen a carbie manifold so you can run tripple webbers for a 5m/6mge before, it was on yahoo auctions japan going for a mint...

    i think it could be done, but its like what every one says... it will cost you lots of money, youll get more power out of a turbo... etc... but it would be hell cool but a pain to tune...

    id like to see it done, just for the sound it would make im sure if HKS made carbie manifolds for the 5m/6m, there would be something floating around for the 1g...

    I have often thought about this, If I had the spare money lying around and the right car to put it in it would be cool to do for shits and giggles, but that is about it...

    I think it sound very very nice. I also think it would be a big big waste of time and money if you were planning to do anything other than just listen to it. though with our current speeding laws thats probally not such a bad idea

    what he said...

    i thought about doing a carby 7MG for my crown... but only for the sake of showing off something different, and for a totally different sound. would have absolutly NO real performance benefit... would only be a pain in the ass in the middle of winter...

    key words there being "properly set up" = time and money...

    true you can do anything, but it all comes down to time and money...

    lol... hey, i love carbies... but it's hard to deny the benefits of EFI by comparison... i have a hand in each pot... one RA28 with 18RG carby, one RA28 with 1G-GTE EFI... and it's a VERY hard task to choose a favourite...

    Doesn't the 1g use an air flapper meter? I'd honesly go the carbies for the least restriction option. Also with the right cams the tripple carbs would definatly have a power advantage over the factory efi or even any custom computer using an air flapper meter (not that anyone would!)

    i thought the main reasion for carbie conversions as well as ITB's was improved throttle response? do carbies improve it as much at ITB's?
