what if u put a wide band 02 on the 7 and 8 primaries and do the tune accrding to those af readings. or jus buy a sequential fuel injection ecu to richen those to cylinders up. i guess a different design of intake, still comnposit, is still waiting to be thought up. what about haveing the 7/8 ports a fraction smaller than the rest to compinsate for the lean condition? i dunno, therees gotta be a couple ways to "fix" it for the fi guys

But if money is no object, one could:
1- Stuff a huge duration cam on a 106 lsa in an auto and it will purr like a 224/ 112
2- Eliminate #7 & #8 fuel starvation
3- Run some awsome trq and power
4- Kick some major *** at the track.

for what that thing offers the price in us dollors is not really that bad
2500 bucks which is twice what the fast intake combo costs but hell that thing is sexy
