Quite frankly you are talking out of yer hoop !

Pair of 45's on e-bay (Item No 350340814854) £520 delivered

Inlet Manifold for Zetec on ebay (250613430811) £95 delivered

Weber Throttle Linkage £ 65

Weber TPS & Mounting Kit £85

Omex 200 £350

Total Price £1,115


To go injection

OMEX600 - £650 (Ignition only module was half that)

Injectors £ 50-60 a piece

Fuel Rail £80

Pressure Regulator £80

High Pressure Pump & Filter £150

Lift Pump & Swirl Pot £100

Throttle bodies themselves £450

Inlet Manifold £95

Total Cost £1805


Almost £700 difference, so hardly the same cost



PaulusPaulos stated he wanted a solution to get his Zetec up and running, he also stated his budget was limited.

All I have done is spelled out to him all his options when it comes to budget, from the lowest common denominator of the ESC Module, which will work, the engine does run and it drives pretty well, ok its not mapped ignition, but it works.

All you have done is banged on about how carbs are shit and cost the same as injection, well as someone who drives a Zetec on carbs all the time I can assure you they are not shit at all and as I have illustrated how its clearly much more expensive to go injection.
