hey guys. does any1 know if the metering head on a S2 rst can work properly if its on its side? hope some1 can help me with this 1! cheers!

 

Shouldn't really make any difference in theory.....

Interesting question..........

 

yeah im tryin summit out. im really tryin to get my rs to flutter n i know it flutters coz i can hear it but i read on here that its the metering head that quietens it down.... so in theory if i move the metering head closer to the turbo then it should b at least a little bit louder!!?? what you reckon?

 

The metering head deadens the sound because the flap closes and kills the sound.

EFI, you KNOW it makes sense

 

i would looooove to go EFi but i dunno the price of the conversion, dunno where i can get it done, and prob cvant afford it lol. any info on getting it done and any other clues???

 

To go onto OFAB/OFAC will only cost about £200/300 if you do it yourself, and you can sell you MFI bits on and make probably close to that back.......

 

it wont work... the flap wont return to inicial pos proper...

 

ok to be honest. if i were to do it myself i prob will have to look into it first, see whats involved, get the bits and tools. try it and most probably will leave summit out. is there any1 or any company out there who do these conversions and how much? hopefully near me - im in west london. cheers

 

Have a look here http://www.escortrsturbo.co.uk/forum...pic=10738&st=0

 

I bet it would, the flap is sprung loaded and once there is fuel pressure it means nothing anyway!!

 

f**k it. im gonna try it. just gotta try n not snap the damn fuel lines! lol

 

be back later with results!!!

 

I bet you a jam tart is makes no difference, not like the pipe to it is long!!

 

na didnt do it in the end. the fuel lines would have to be re-done to go to that position. f**k it - save for efi i suppose lol.

 

Best thing you've said
