Info needed on carb smart and dual needles

was wondering if theres any advantage or a way to run carb smart on a OS 90 with the dual needles? These a great on OS 50 hypers with single needle and was wondering how to set it up on dual or if its even a good idea.

I run CS on a fleet of 90's (SZ, HZ and CSPEC) and it works great.
You need to run the mid a few clicks leaner than you would without the CS to allow the main needle to have a bit more adjustment of midrange temps. With that it works greatJim Senicka

High needle.
On OS this is gateway to everything. (On YS you would need to run both needles).
I run SZ on 110C with SB18L pipe.
Mid is 3 clicks rich from 1/4 turn.
High is at 1-1/4 minus a couple clicks open at full leanJim Senicka

there is no need to control the mid needle when the gov keeps the revs up for you. we always use them on the high needle.Urukay HPS3 KSE 700 HPS3

good question but I would think about the same temp, if im not mistaken i use 100 on my 50 and 110 should be about right for most 90s
