I'll beat your 3x2 carbs with a COOL 3X2 Dodge magnum V-8...... and it's fuel injection ....
You might have mentioned it elsewhere, and I just haven't read it, why did you choose that setup?
Honestly for a couple of reasons.
1) I was building a stroker engine and worried about adequate CFM to feed the 408 cid. After I'd ordered this I found a 1200 CFM throttle body that would have fit onto the Hughes AirGap intake I had.
2) Because I thought it looked KEWL as heck.
3) I'd lucked out and happen to contact the company when they had a used unit sitting there. So the normal $3500 isn't what I'd paid.
4) It hooks up to the stock PCM so it's not like most aftermarket setups like this. While it does take a little more time to tune it all the stock sensors mount onto it.
It has a progressive throttle linkage so from other owners I've talked to they say it's pretty economical for what it is.
But the ultimate reason was because I thought it was RAD as Fuck and would be unique.
That's the first Tesla that I actually like. I guess ICE engine swaps will be the only saving grace for these EVs when the battery pack ultimately dies and cost 20K plus to replace. How ironic.
I've seen that Prius at an event somewhere, but I can't remember where. Seems like it was a display and not running/driving when I saw it.
Isn't that rule #1.
Yes it is...
But really the #1 reason was that I couldn't find something with the CFM to support the stroker.
I guess I should say within a reasonable price. Most larger TBs I'd found cost what I paid for the 6pack.
What is the rated CFM and are these any harder to tune than a single TB? I know a 3x2 carb setup can be more challenging to tune than a single carb. Maybe EFI sees nothing different, just air flow at a given RPM?
If I remember correctly it's 1350 CFM for the 6 pack but I'm not positive.
Ryan from FRP (Flyin Ryan Performance) says that the they more difficult to tune but it's impossible.

What Tesla?
The little Citroen is easily my favorite of the three.
