Well im just about sold. I am looking forward on seeing more people install this system as my plan is to go this route in the spring... Finally someone isnt gouging the market for efi @ $995 for the system excluding fuel pump.

There was a big thread discussing this about a week ago
 
Hopefully this is the beginning of EFI coming down to earth in price. Much like the TV market a few years back.
 
They are available. Got mine yesterday, hopefully I can get it installed this weekend. Looks fairly straight forward.
 
X2! Did you buy just the EFI kit, or the kit plus their prepackaged fuel delivery system?

lots of pics, description, and any issues/pros/cons... :happy1:

I just wonder where they skimped. My "cheap" Powerjection efi retails for 1600 w/o the fuel pump. The original creators said they had to cast the throttlebodies in china just stay competitive in pricing and seems to have nearly the same features as this much cheaper kit. And that said, my kit took a lot of playing to get just right.
 
They're local to me. I've seen them at quite a few of their test/sponsored vehicles at autocross events. I believe one of their test vehicle's is a '70 Cuda.
 
Does anyone know the cfm rating of the throttle bodies? Looking at the pictures and videos it looks fairly large, but I haven't seen anything in any literature I've seen. It looks like an interesting system. I'm tempted to give it a shot. If it works I can sell my carb stuff and almost pay for it.

Yep... Now looking at their website, I've seen the El Camino autocross a couple of times and I know the owner of the green mustang. I actually rode shotgun in his car for a couple of runs a month or two ago at the autocross. It definitely seemed healthy. I know he's had it installed for at least 3-4 months.
 
Well, it is installed and running. Hooked up 5 wires and since I already had the in tank pump and hoses ran, it was just a matter of running hose to the tbi.
Then entered some info into handheld, took about 5 minutes. Since I am using e85, I had to adjust the afr's a little.
Turned the key, primed the system and fired right up. Had to adjust idle but after that it just sat there and idled. Took it for a 40 mile jog and I can tell you it ran awesome. Still has to learn but run beautifully.
So far I believe it is worth the chips.
I have install pics that I will upload later.
Ask questions and I will answer all I can.
 
I hope they work great and give years of problem free use. I wish they were around when I purchased my FAST EZ EFI2 for my Dart. My system works great and has timing control, but I wouldn't say mine has been trouble free either. Mine lost the MAP sensor after a month. It was a ***** to replace but it's working fine now. I could have used the extra money on other sections of the car.
