Sorry! Lsd, brakes and big turbo. You picky ballbag rash

if it's a daily I'd say 16v, pref an ABF if you can find one.

G60 likes a drink, see ?

My kjet abf + heavy right foot also equals an expensive car to fuel!! £10 a day, for less than 40 miles!! Beating the modern car mugs is worth it though..

Cue the ABF w/kjet bashing!

So far the kjet is the only thing that's been problem free with my car, other than the not so great mpg.. If the 160bhp I had rr'd is accurate and I'm pushing more than a standard digi abf then for over engineering the control to make slightly better bhp with less power isn't worth it imo. I've seen a lot of head scratching posts due to the digi setup, my kjet I now understand, and can test and fault find (should I need to) quite easily, digi requires a bit more electrical knowledge which people expecting plug and play don't always have. I like kjet, so does my old school rr man. When optimised it aint so bad...

...but it needs optimising regularly and what is this 150bhp abf figure all about? Decat and decent exhaust alone and you'll see 160bhp, add a 4bar fpr and a chip and you'll see 170ish.

However, G60 still makes sense as you can see 200-220 without too much hassle

to get K jet absolutly cock on just takes to much effort TBH.

you have to check every singel part of the system to ensure it's working correctly and replace or rebuild if it isn't.  that can cost a few £'s

then it needs setting up right and i don't mean jut the contol pressures and CO,  there is adjustement for trimmiing each injector its something a lot of people never bother doing and it's supriseing how far the setting can stray over time.  top reason for K jet abf's eatingn pistons even tho there set up "perfectly".

all it needs is 1 injector to spray a bit less and another to spray more and even tho the overall lambda reading is correct one cyl can be lean,  pop the injectors out pu them in measuring tubes and wedge the metering flap open odds on the tubes are going to fill at diffrent rates.  twerk the littel screws so they ll fill at the same rate and it'll go better.

personaly i prefer electronic managment far easyer imo
