    Change to WEBER carb..

    I am planing to change my original carb with a weber carb,i was wondering if it is worth the money..How much HP do i get the with a weber 32/36 DGEV electric choke?Will it affect my fuel economy,higher?How much higher?is this kit bolt on or do i need to modify something,i have a 86 Accord (europe) with A20A2
    (79 KW) engine,accords with :
    A20A1 (75 KW) came in 1989 and have katalysator,but it is the same engine.

    It is a bolt on. Not very hard to install. The only problem I think everyone had was to plug a coolant hole on the intake manifold. I didn't know b/c I was one of a hand full of guys that did it. What I did was just make a custom gasket and he has worked since then and it has been about 9 months. It raised my fuel ecnomy from 17 in town to 24 and highway is sweet for me at least. When I drove to NY I got 35-43 miles per gallon. And it is a nice increase in power. I think A20A1 said it was like 15% hp increase.
