    I just saw that is the back of HOT ROD and it caught my eye also. 750 and 1000cfm. I would like to know the price also.

    interested but cautious..

    Throttle body F.I. is traditionally a dog for performance, plus you get the tunability issues that come with F.I. I would also be hesitant to trust their fuel pump for continuous duty until I see how it works out for someone else. Bottom line, I wouldn't want to be the first person to buy it but I'd like to know how it works out for someone thats not ME... :Comp:

    if you guys can remeber barrygrant had a similar idea in the late 90s
    but it never got off the ground because of software issues :Smarty:

    tlivingd BIG BLOCK, THE ANTI PRIUS

    I'm always skeptical with auto tuning functions. However they can be made smart enough to work. Also if you are running a big block car and this setup uses what looks like 4- port style injectors getting that huge of an injector can cause some issues. one they are hard to find. if you find them they are $$$ and at lower speeds they can cause idle issues when you go with such a large injector. (there maybe ways around this however) seems like a neat idea though.

    I just may be that guy....buying this system. I'm awaiting feedback fromt he company. I really like the idea of this setup. I'm in the middle of putting my 455 together and don't have a proper carb for it, so before I plunk down 5=700$ for a prepped carb, I'd like to maybe try this system.

    I just got some feedback from them. Their 930 cfm system is targeted at $2000. Seems like a little too much to me. On the other hand I have $600 in my q-jet and it still needs more tuning. I probably have $1000 in all mods and stuff for setting up my 200r4. Will have another $400 in fuel pumps and fuel lines so now at $1400. If starting from scratch on a new carb fuel system this is now competitive.
