Jetronic

[amalventano1@comcast.net (Allyn)]

jetronic came in the lotus esprit turbo as well. not just jetronic, but the exact variant in the
scirocco (ke-jetronic). 90% of the sciroccos that showed up at cincy this year had jetronic
(including rons and my cars, which whooped some ass at the auto-x).
the only real limit to jetronic is it can only flow so much fuel, so once you get to the point of a
turbo/supercharger you must seek another route. you can actually get away with a low boost turbo and
keep jetronic.
