No, actually I'm not. I don't know enough about the systems overall dependability to make that call.

I'm pro american...yes...but....I will not call stuff made in China Chinese Junk until it's proven it's Chinese junk.

Does it raise an eyebrow ? Sure....since, what, 80% of things made in China is junk......but again, that doesn't mean something is until it's proven as junk.

Just wanna make this clear.

Helped with the installation of 2 systems a couple of years ago on 2 540's. They need constant O2 feedback and will not work with forced induction. 1.5yrs on the O2's and boat runs great. Pretty simple systems.

Yes I already said in another thread that they are not USA made but left out the China made because I did not want anyone to think up front that it was pure junk system. I met the owner in person and he even told me were they are made China. He seemed very interested in making head way into the marine market. He also wanted to know from my end how are the marine OEM EFI set ups and my opinions. IMO he really cares about his products and wants to keep them entry level pricing but try to offer best bang for your buck kind of deal.

I have no experience with USING his systems but did spend alot of time looking over them in my hands. They actually looked good in person. just saying

I have an inquiry to them about using their new and yet released MPI system with twin turbos in a Marine environment. There is a post on one of the forums about using the TBI version with a Procharger with good results.

The literature says the new MPI system will take boost as it comes with a 2.5 bar MAP, spark control/rev limiting and all other sensors contained in the throttle body, apart from a water temp sensor for the intake and a 02 sensor for the pipe (which can not be tuned out) Entire system for up to 1050hp is $1995, turnkey. I have all the intake stuff, probably go ahead and buy new injectors, so deleting those items from their "package", the stand alone electronics package is $1295. 6-wire hook up and your rollin'.
When you're talking about two engines, that's a heck of a savings! Even made in America stuff is often just "assembled" in America using Chinese stuff. Looks good, but so do alot of mean women!!! lol! Only time will tell.

Do you have a link about the post in the forum? I'd like to have a look at that. I don't need any links to mean women as I've got that covered.

Fitechefi.com

I tried to find the exact link I saw, but looking back, couldn't find it. It was in the comments to a youtube post, the guy that owns the company built it. Google Fitech EFI Procharger and there are several forums and reviews.
