Anybody heard of"PERFECTPOWER EFI"
Is it any good?
I was considering going with SDS but then I found this system
and I think it looks kind of intersting and the best thing about it for me would
be that the Canadian distributor for it is only 5 miles from my house and
they have a dyno.
I would realy like the KitCarlson but I am running out of time
if I want the car back on the road this spring.
I have to make a decision very soon.
What do you EFI guys think of this system?

I looked at this recently, and it looks like they raised the price significantly over what Ben paid, but even so $700 with harness but no sensors is still not a bad price. The SDS system is about $1200 for pretty much the same thing

The SDS is a good system but I wouldn't call it "the same thing". With the Perfect Power ECU you get data-logging as well as live system feedback on the laptop. You don't get that on the SDS and I'll tell you straight up that I couldn't live without it. There is HUGE benefit to being able to tune on the engine all the while having a screen in front of you that shows all of the following in real time:

  • Throttle possition
  • RPM
  • Manifold Pressure
  • Air temp
  • Engine temp
  • Ignition advance angle
  • Injector duty cycle/pulse width
  • Acceleration enrichment value (at current temps/rpm/load)
  • Other stuff I can't think of at the moment


Throw in an LM-1 wideband O2 controller w/ aux. data cable and you're in fat city.
I'm surprised the Perfect Power ECU doesn't come with the sensors. Did they switch to standard GM sensors or something? That might explain the sensors not being included and would actually be a good thing IMHO.
