Honda Tuning ran an article of a 90's rex with dual weber side drafts.

Generally speaking a carb creates a better fuel atomization then a typical Injection setup. This is why alot of all motor and autocross guy like it. They are grasping ever ounce of power they car and this is one way they can do it. They don't care
about economy, boost, are fine "Around Town" tuning.

wtf, an injector's ability to atomize fuel is 10x better than a carb.

Not true. A Weber Side Draft Carb is known for it's ability to completely break up the particles of fuel for proper atomization. Do some research you'll find out. Trust me, people just don't switch Injected Vehicles over because it "looks cool"!

I've used Webers in the past [not a honda] and the main problem is they are a real bitch to tune and they need constant adjustments based on elevation etc.I'm not much of a carb tuner either so that didn't help.I imagine you could use a crank trigger setup.They sound beuftiful at full throttle and make for a super clean engine bay with next to no wires.

keep in mind kiddies, no winter weather will bother this car because its only driven once or twice a week if that, its backed with a 150-200 shot of nitrous and most of its life is at the track. not worried bout drivability. just the fact if it helps power wize and if theres a benifit of actually doing this. they seem to be doing it here locally so i guess its better some how. i jus wanted to kno how... n who/what/how kinda info for me. i found out what kinda carbs they are... i guess i kinda have it figured out cuz i talked to a buddy fo mine earlier bout it. ill let u guys kno if i go through with it or not n what i end up goign with.. later.

Every last Honda made to date is carbureted.

I think you are confusing carbureted with carburetor.

It's an F22 and it runs low low 10s in that chassis. He's gone 9s with that motor in an Insight and 10s with carbs on a D.

Hows 392hp and 281ft/lbs from an all motor single cam and not an ECU in the car?
