But on a tiny engine like ours...it would take exactly 100 Scooter engines to equal 305 cubic inches.(same as the 5.0L engine) For more power you need ..more rpms..more displacement...Nitrous Oxide..Nitromethane based fuel.. All of which will grenade your engine. A 24mm carb and 150 intake are overkill and will not do it...the engine simply CANNOT draw in that much air/fuel. Therefore I would opt for the 'Road Runner' cartoons ACME Jet Pack..
