Hi, first post on here so hello everyone . . Done a lot of reading here and elsewhere on the subject matter but nothing really specific.
First off 1988 Bertone X1/9 UK Euro motor with 24/66/64/28 Cam, Weber 34 DATR 85 BHP so completely stock.
What Iād like to do is put the L-Jet FI on the car that US cars came out with.
Again a few things, Iām aware of all the differences regarding head design so I know I will need to change thermostat housing to accommodate water temp sender and probably the thermo time switch and add aux air valve, O2 sensor etc.
Iāve also read that Matt from Midwest Bayless said that on the US spec cars that if you raised the compression added either a set of headers or euro exhaust and cam that the motor would produce about 100bhp.
As the Euro motor already has the exhaust & camshaft & compression lift would it be logical that I would see the same power output and also will the std L-jetronic be able to accommodate for the cam, exhaust and compression of the Euro motor.
Iām not looking for a race car just drivability gains primarily as Iām fitting factory air conditioning.
Any feedback will be appreciated.
