Bofeng vs OKO

[DieselTech]

That's expensive, I'd probably just get a bofeng for this build, but I'd use a mikuni in my next build

Yeah the price always scares you, but after you own the real deal on a carburetor like that. You got it for life if you decide to keep it that long. Plus it's nothing like these nt & bofeng carbs. But for the money, hands down the bofeng is the way to go. Till you decide to upgrade.

Lmao my dellorto built to the specs I wanted was $160, probably closer to $200.

Is that a actual mikuni?

I'm not 100% sure... The real made in Japan mikuni from the Denis Kirk site... So it should be... There $300 from mikuni

I have had some pretty good results with the PWK 24 from Nibbiracing.com .

It seems to be that the best and most used carbs are the bofeng, and the oko. The bofeng just looks like a beefed up nt, while the oko is like a BIG carb. How do they differ based on performance, which would be better and why?

Well if you plan on only mild mod's, Bofeng. If you want to mod the crap out of it, OKO. Bofeng is way easier to tune, OKO takes some skill to get right. Bofeng is cheaper too. Good carbs in my book, both of them. I prefer saw carbs though, easier to tune, and good addition of power.

What is the difference that makes the bofeng so much better than the NT?

Better clamp, better fuel mixing, thicker housing, easier to find jets. Same price.

per example, old NT style I use a 68-69 jet here. New Bofeng, I use a 55. Less fuel use, same bang.
