wait a min, what yr 2.3 are we talking? if its fi and not carb i dont recommend doing the swap you lose your tuning ability, esp if you have an eec5 motor, you dont have a way to adjust your ign timing since you bypassed the computer. in order for you to run a carb on a trk is to have a distributor style trk that way you can get away from computerized ignition and not throw codes/not run and/or have no advance going on since you have no tps or maf to tell the pcm how far open the throttle is. now if you have a distributor style 2.3 w/ a vacuum advance and already carbed going to a bigger carb and intake would prob have some benefits, unsure since ive never seen or heard of doing so on a 2.3. wasnt trying to be a wiseass but ive seen someppl try to do an fi to carb conversion and lets just say the results were nasty.
