Re: Aftermarket Fuel Injection
After playing with Fitech and Holley I full endorse the Holley kit. Fitech is lacking on so many points. Please id you do this use Holley.

Re: Aftermarket Fuel Injection
what about the webcon retroject (Weber 38 DGAS clone) or one of the Jenvey throttle bodies?
They look easier to use on fiat manifolds and though they are all expensive seem to be cheaper than the Holley one

Re: Aftermarket Fuel Injection
The Webcon is simply the throttle body part of the system. While I do like that it drops easily onto a Fiat manifold, you'll have to roll your own ECU and sensors and work though the integration. The Holley costs more but comes with everything you need to get up and running already integrated.Cstorry wrote:what about the webcon retroject (Weber 38 DGAS clone) or one of the Jenvey throttle bodies?

Re: Aftermarket Fuel Injection
You need all the other components. Including an ecu, fuel delivery, all the connections.Cstorry wrote:what about the webcon retroject (Weber 38 DGAS clone) or one of the Jenvey throttle bodies?

Physically mating components up is usually the easiest part of one of these projects. Where people cheap out and cut corners is commonly the wiring harness and then the whole thing falls on its face. It's not easy to build an oem-spec harness from scratch, but it is doable and well worth it. These things rise and fall with the reliability of the sensor readings and the repeatability of given commands.

Re: Aftermarket Fuel Injection
I'll have to look at the retroject closer. I thought it was complete except for the ECU and a higher pressure fuel pump.
The FPR, fuel rail, injectors and air temp sensor (and idle air) are all built-in (I think).
For sure the ECU is an extra cost but having a choice of system might be an advantage when it comes to tuning.
I'll monitor how you guys do with the Holley. I'm not quite ready to take on my EFI project yet anyways.
