Is the CB Performance Update Kit for Webers (44 IDFs) seem worthwhile for a 2270/2316? (The one with the horizontal bars instead of secondary venturis) Current venturis are already 36mm.
Is jetting affected tremendously?
Thanks!

On a side note. CSP in Germany alters the kits before selling them. It is among other things, exactly that, the spray tube.
whether it is worth it or not is a bit hard to say. Because the back to back tests I have seen, was all made on an engine that had sufficient breathing through a normal 44 IDF. They improoved power by 4 - 6 hp on 2 liter T1´s What they should have done, was to test it on a firebreathing big cc motor that really could use say a set of 48´s instead. THEN it would shine bright how much improovement there really was.
The Spanish 40 IDF seems to benefit a good deal from the kit. BUT, its even worse to jet afterwards, compared to a normal set up carb. But when you get there, you can make the transition about as smooth as an old set of Italian IDF´s or DellOrto carbs.
