Performance increase with Keith's new Venturi Fountain (VF) tubes in my S3 Elan (Sprint engine) was amazing!
The old gal pulls like a train to red line (and beyond), with no hint of hesitation at the dreaded transition / tip-in rpm.
Well worth the money (and import charges).
Cheers, Doug

Is the $25 the cost for one carb? i.e. 2 jets?
Thanks

$25 each. They replace the emulsion tubes. You need (2) per carb.

I've got his hypo jets and of last week I now have the VF e-tubes. I swapped out the tubes I was using with the same jets 130/180. The engine felt immediately better and more tractable but restrained/rich. I swapped out the 180 for 190 dry jets and the engine came alive. The best performance and tractability I have ever had in 25 years of Weber tuning. My tuning is seat of the pants but gee it feels good/right. I need to hook up my AFR gauge to check for sure but I know it feels right just by driving. Get some. You won't look back.

please post the result of the AFR when you get a chance, possibly with a rapid description of the tuning involved (and engine specs)
