tuned by delicious. I'm running a custom kit, fabbed by driven fabrication, locally here. This car will be getting a built motor, but probably not until early next year. I'm running an efr 6758 and will be running their flexfuel kit, aiming for around 400-420 rwhp. |

This thread makes me rethink going FI. Like others have said, you pay to play the game. As much as I would like to play, I think Id prefer to not pay LOL. I was thinking of approximately 5-6k to go FI but since this is my only car, any downtime, etc wont work for me. Also, Im not as mechanically inclined as about 99.9% of the people on here. Thank you for this thread.

Everyone that blew a motor should place the manufacturing date. A lot of blown motors seem random. Maybe we can correlate the the date to the blown motor

Primarily revolving around the tuning or installation mistake.

@mkivsoopra has been driving his FI FA20 motor into the ground at the local tracks in the area for the past 2 years @ ~300 whp. Motor is still healthy and just verified it is making the expected power still (recent dynojet pulls). I'll let him chime in on how many track days/weekends he has done on the kit so far.
Like @King Tut said, if tuned right, kit is solid, and installation is solid... it seems the motor holds up reasonably well at sub 350 whp levels.
