I am pretty happy with my stock FI. But after seeing some of the setups at Okteenerfest, I thought this might be worth trying.
The stock system is not easy to modify and get things running correctly. I spent a lot of time making minor adjustments by trial and error. While I am not looking for huge HP gains or anything, it is pretty clear that the mods I have could potentially benefit from a bit more precise control. Going to start with fuel only at this point to get things going and see where it leads me. Any help or suggestions for set up would be appreciated. |

It will be easy to self wire. However, if you want to make it available to the community - or want to market a kit to help recover costs - then it's even easier to tell them to "go there" for the harness, and "there" for the MS, and "there" for the TPS, etc and "here's how to install it" and "here's the thread where the community posts our tunes for the varying setups". Soup.

Soup. True. But given my level of expertise in this area I am not sure how many will want to follow my lead! The one thing that I can say is that from a cost view point, this conversion seems to represent a very interesting break point between repairing a stock system and converting. Looking at just over $500 for the parts makes this very interesting. To be clear, my stock system is going on the shelf to be used again at some point. |
