Programmable electronic fuel injection (PEFI)
Is anyone interested in a SDS PEFI GROUP BUY? Base system list is $785 or $1165 for the full meal deal (crank trigger ignition) for the 4-cylinder version.(full list price, not counting discount) Discount is 10% off for 2 systems and up to 25% off for 10 systems. So that could = the base 4 cylinder system for approximately $600* or about the price of a new MPS. *(Based on the basic system, no options with 10 people in the buy for a 25% discount, no shipping.) This is for the brain only, many options, you must check out their site and decide what you want/need. Will work on the stock engine and intake system to get you going. Then you can go hipo crazy (cam, TB’s, stroker, etc.) if you want. (I think with a few options $800. to $1000.+ is maybe a more realistic cost per system.) http://www.sdsefi.com/ The points I like about it are: you don’t need a laptop (which is good for me as I’m totally ‘puter stupid), the controller stays in the car, they will build it with a real CHT sender, they custom tailor the harness, the base system isn’t too expensive, info BBS, they have aircooled experience and the guy uses it on his own plane. A couple of bugs and a couple of 911’s are running this system, one 914 in progress. Check it out, sounds good to me, but if you’ve heard anything bad about them let me know. The only real negatives that I have heard so far is; the CPU isn’t waterproof and the 914 guy said that he was having trouble (stock fan) mounting the crank trigger. 6 cylinder version base price $ 815, full meal deal $1320. (full list price, not counting discount) 8 cylinder and Mazda 2 rotor systems also available. If anyone is interested shoot me an email. I’m thinking about buying at the end of April/May. mhenry69@sympatico.ca |

This is the links to the compatition, most won't even give you a price list:
http://www.emi.cc/ http://www.haltech.com.au/ http://www.motec.com/ http://www.tciauto.com/ecu/spe_menu.htm http://www.mrgasket.com/accel.htm http://www.bgsoflex.com/megasquirt.html This is the link to the SDS FAQ page: http://www.sdsefi.com/adv.htm Yes, some of the testamonials 'may' be biased, but they are pushing this system as the eaziest system to program. Mueller, I agree with most of what you said, but how hard is it going to be to install a system that has a custom, made to your spec, wiring harness? I mean it doesn't have many more wires than a stereo and I can do that in an afternoon taking my time. I know thats not the same, but it really only has one big wire to run to the dash, the rest should be not much more than the stock harness. I really don't think 1-2 weekends for the install is out of line. |
