how to get the most power out of a gt-2

[Nate]

Sadly, no. There used to be an old boy in Bradford who would do them for 60 quid fixed fee, but he packed up a few years ago.

in fairness i dont know any carb specialists, i must admit i dont know where to start with them,

[Nate]

That's the plus side of the weber. Its very easy to get them running somewhere near, and not that hard to get them spot on

[Brave]

but they arn't especially cheap, iv been looking out for one for a while going cheap,

on a side note does anyone know of any threads or good information on swapping these heads,

I know a bloke with over 30 years VW/Audi experience, can sort Pierburgs also, based in Chelmsford (Essex).

[Brave]

could u pm me some details or a number, it wont be for a fair while, and its a bit far away, but if i cant find anyone else i would rather go on someones recommendation! even if it does mean traveling

thanks for linking that thread, jesus rubjonny seems to be on every forum giving out the infos!

[mark1gls]

No worries, rubjonny does know his stuff. Atleast you can now get a better understanding on the carb.

Don't know where you're based dude, but there's a good carb specialist in Chesterfield

Chatsworth Motor Spares
Address: 362 Chatsworth Rd, Town Centre, Chesterfield S40 2DQ

Not the most pleasant person to deal with, but certainly knows his stuff and wasn't expensive last time i used him

Put a weber on it it a much better carb than the auto choke pierburg rubbish that is on their as standard. A webber would free up quite a chunk of bhp and it would be the first thing I would do.

the weber will actually restrict the power, as it is a smaller carb. they only appear to improve it, as the pierburg carb is generally running very badly at the time of removal. the pierburg running correctly is a vastly superior bit of kit, and there is a manual choke conversion available if you don't like the autochoke

Im sorry but that's wrong, look at the ports on the weber and look at the ports on a pierburg.... night and day difference in throttle response and power.
