I think carbs sound and look nice under the hood would go turbo but trying to not spend to much on it aswell and looks easyer to take off again once I get a Vts or the gti

im guessing emissions, carbs arent very accurate at fuelling, too much co or hc or both, usually they run a bit on the rich side so i guess thats why
