Hey there. That's awesome that you picked one up already. How did it effect not only the startup, idle, etc but actual power. Did you feel any improvement? Also what carb did you run prior?
I was running a 830 Holley converted to e85. The startup is quick and idle stays where it is set.
Power is the same right now but it is also still learning as I haven't driven it a lot, so it may get better, I hope. I am still adjusting a few things so it's not perfect yet.
Cool-we also want to know if there was any delta to the mileage...if you've logged enough miles to tell a difference...although, it looks like your build has little to nothing in regards to concern with mileage...
Got it. I am planning on picking this kit up in the spring but I'm hoping for some power improvements as well. Currently running an 850 thermoquad which runs really strong right now. 1/4 mile comparisons will tell.
How is the off idle acceleration/throttle response?
The throttle response is great, no bog or hesitation. Just goes.
Subscribed with a bump... I'm about to pull my existing ECM (GM-based TPI from Affordable) and replace it with SOMETHING that self-tunes. Between kids and life, I just don't have the tinker time any more, and I've got to get my Valiant back on the road soon. I really only need the ECM and harness, the rest of my system works.

Interesting system. It says it is ready for boost as well with a built in 2.5 Bar sensor. I was going to go carb and do the switch to e85. This may be the ticket to do this and throw on a Procharger as well. My fuel system and engine were built for boost. I am going to call them and see about what they would recommend for my set up and do some more research.
What head unit, D1 or F1?
Here are some pics. Not much to the install. Tell me what you want to see and I will take a pic. Also, any questions ask away. I will try and answer.
this system,looks interesting... Wonder about the parts/ecm /possible software upgrades-replacement parts? That's a damn nice price,if it turns out to be reliable.
I just bought the 1200hp system single throttle body. My fuel system is ready to go. No upgrade needed.
Will let you all know how it pans out.
So you bought the 1200hp unit? Probably best incase you upgrade at some point.
Did you already have a fuel system to support it or did you need to upgrade that as well?
What CI is your engine. Any details?
I got the 1200 hp unit because I am running e85 on a 416 sb, that Mike at MRL built. It dynoed at 650 but the system was an accel and the engine never did right run with the Accel.
My fuel system was already capable of supporting it.
