anyway my part is the fuel system and i am having some trouble finding info on what exactly u need to do to size fuel pump injectors etc.

We are using a suzuki k6 600cc engine running around 82hp, this is because of the 20mm intake restriction in the rules.does anyone have experience with fuel systems? any help be appreciated

Thanks guys

add small turbo with a blow-through carburettor, fuel pump and pressure reg and see if you can put the restrictor between turbo an carb

bend the rules :D
