I've thought of trying it just for fun. I had a 30mm Delorto stilling around from a ROK.

Did it help overall or just give you more torque down low?

Not sure why that low RPM would come from the 30mm carb. These 30mm Delortos run the ICC motors to near 15K through much more agressive pipes and 42+ HP.

But I may have just shown everybody how little I know about high performance 2 strokes.

The last I played with the Rotax it was obvious that the 34mm carb was limited by the airbox.

I know my kart ran terribly when my intake tube come out of my airbox. It was definietly getting too much air. Might work with an open air filter and bigger jets. Let us know how it works out.

as for the rpm issue try going from a dq atomizer to a dp. the dp is shorter than the dq. helps with fuel going to the engine. a friend of mine tried a leopard airbox and he couldnt get richen the jets enough to it to run right.

What RPM does a Rotax normally turn with 34mm carb?
