CIS airflow meter limits HP? (Martin Pajak)

[Brady Moffatt]

John,
The instant you introduce injector pulse into the equation, are you not then
going to EFI, by definition? That changes the whole ballgame... At that
point, the contentious fuel metering unit and its restriction are gone
anyways.

Cheers,

I would venture an educated guess that a Audi CIS system has the same amount
of "tunabilty", and would  I agree with others that other similar CIS sytems
make in excess of 300bhp.
I KNOW stock audi systems are almost identical (I'm A former VW/Porshe/Audi
mechanic). The only real differeces are the amount of inputs that control
the sytem, but they all REALLY do the same thing; they ALL have the same
basic components, pumps, fuel dist, ect, some just have more control of
ignition timing, injector pulse (Motronic), ect...In reality, any Audi/Bosch
sytem COULD be made to work the same way, and I would assume that anyone
capable of building a motor that "might" make 300bhp more than likely has
the skills to make a stock based injection sytem work corectly...it really
would not be a tough job with the right "off the Shelf" parts...and they
(the parts)are out there.
Regards
John
