Looking for a carb and intake.. any suggestions? so many choices... Best? worst?

I went with a 24mm oko and a ct mani...seems to be working great on my Corsa!

wow.. you guy's wen't crazy with the suggestions... NOT

has anyone use the MIKUNI FLATSLIDE CARB MIKUNI 24MM TM24-8001 ? and if soo what intake would work with that? the ct?

The only reasonable other option is the CT with a 21 OKO if it is to be a street scooter.

well i gotta' beat my buddies so it's gotta be fast... and this stock carb and intake are really choking me off here

that carb is good too. a little harder to tune but can be done. you will have to try it first with the spigot that comes with the ct. you might have to change to the malossi spigot. its smaller for mikuni carbs. if your doing 60mph now you wont gain any much more but another 1maybe 2mph. the contessa is not made to rev unless you port it to the exact specs as the corsa. thats what is going to limit you from going faster.that pipe will limit you too as its more for 50-65cc bores.

Greetings:

Talk to TreatLand.TV guys to get the right "Donut" to adapt the smaller 32mm Mikuni spigot to the CT manifold. (OKO carbs are 34.

I really liked the Mik 24 except that the idle mixture screw was located to the inside. I found tuning was pretty straightforward except for that mixture screw. You can reach it with a short Hex screwdriver bit and a skinny-fingered Spider Monkey.

so do you think the oko? or even a delorto would be better? ... top speed i'm happy with.. it's just getting there..

A bigger carb will give you more top speed but will hurt acceleration. Do some variator tuning for better acceleration.

Finally! Another intelligent member agrees with my 21mm carb choice...

What about a 24mmoko with Chrome Ct Mani

I've said for a long time that over-carberation will give you a little more top speed but hurt your usable acceleration for everyday street driving. I'm leaning toward a 21 mm OKO for my Aero 80 hop up instead of the 24 that CT Cycles pushes.

i think my exhaust hurts my low-end power, it's not bad def. better than stock, but it's gotta' go.. so bear your saying that a bigger carb and intake dosen't help with low end power? .. and another thing i'm running 8.44 gears so.. i'm thinking maybe the 9.1 would improve that.. although it might destroy my top-end...

or are you saying to NOT over carb. it.. maybe stick with a 19mm or 21mm carb.. and all this mess i hear about oko issues makes me not wanna buy one..
