I am finishing up a 2056 Kit from Jake and was going to go with carbs. I am having second thought on that. I know a lot about EFI and only a little about carbs. I want more (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) and less (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
I like the reliability and simplicity of the carbs but I don't want to be messing with stuff once I get it set up. The question is where is the best place to buy an SDS EFI setup for fuel only? |

Ask him to have it set up for you. |

Jake took the EFI stuff off of his store. I seem to remember reading a post from him where he said he would only be doing a whole package setup with turnkey engines. I don't know. I will check out the LN Engineering link.
Thanks |

Why not the stock d jet, it would work great for your set up?

Just go right to the source: www.sdsefi.com. Setting up fuel only would be a snap compaired to what I did to add the ignition control- not that it was that painful, but you could use the stock throttle body, injectors, and control it all with the SDS. I love mine. I think it has enough features to really get the job done well, but not so many options/screens/configurations to make it cumbersome and confusing to deal with.

We will be re introducing the RAT/SDS EFI packages first of the year... we pulled the systems due to long delays in filling orders waiting on throttle bodies and injectors.
I have been working with SDS for the past 6 months or so on a new chip specifically for an aircooled applicatio that allows the AFR in closed loop to be set at a predetermined value, instead of stoich.. This seriously impacted the drivability of my 912E and the Pinzgauer that I have them set up on as test mules. The cool thing about it is the chip will auto correct for a 25% variance in RPM fuel or MP values to reach the target AFR and it responds very quickly when enabled. It gave me a solid 3MPG in the 912E and two MPG in the Pinz. This post has been edited by Jake Raby: Dec 28 2007, 02:12 PM |

I'll be getting mine from Jake. I like the idea that he makes sure it is set up for the Type IV and combo I am running.

In most cases we have a very close fuel map that we can upload when testing the unit, prior to shipping..
Those that have my combinations benefit from this because I have a couple of maps for most of these combos from test engines, or customer's turn keys that we have tuned. |
