    Phazer/Genesis 80FI for mini Formula Car

    A blower won't pull any more air through the restrictor, but you will choke it quicker, which is why we ran a centrifugal blower on ours. It pulled the more low end power up, but it didn't add anything to the top end, it could pull a little off the top end really, when you start thinking about...

    I would strongly discourage the use of carburation. Run the fuel injection that it came with. It might be a little more work at first, and you might have to run and find some EE's to talk to, but if you take a FI system off and install a carburator, you will get SLAUGHTERED by the judges.
