Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Carburetors can be side draft or down draft - the float chamber is different between these configurations
Side draft is probably better as it has a direct airflow into the head - but needs a lot more space
Down draft will put the air flow through an elbow, this configuration uses less space but is taller
Both work really well for street cars
In Motorsport there would be a preference for side draft
But it's mostly fuel injection and ECU these days which is far superior to carburators2012.1 Skoda Octavia VRS DSG Wagon - Carbonio cold air intake and pipe - HPA Motorsports BBK 355mm rotors 6 pot calipers
