R-tech
 
Just reading PRA mag and good article. Has anyone here used there systems? Is it true for 8k :eek: you can buy a basic pkg., all dressed, making 875 from stock 525EFI's? Who installs these around Milwaukee WI?

I have a rtech retro kit for a m4 procharger. I went from a procharger intercooler to the rtech. In checking my efi log the intake temp was reduced (do not remember how much) & the efi after was using aprox. 15% more fuel at WOT due to the lower temp & increase in boost presure. I am going into my 3 season with the rtech and would do it again.

Ditto!!:evilb:

Did the same upgrade on a 548 ProCharged motor with excellent results.
Same EFI log results as well.

I looked at this setup in Miami year before last and was VERY impressed with it.

At that time the price was around $6500.00 for my 500EFI's.

The only down side I had was overall height and clearence which would cause me to have to add scoops.

Go for it Dave!

I'll see how things go money wise this year. I need triple digits soon otherwise I'm out of boating.

HPJunkie 03-22-2007 03:30 PM

Does this set up relocate the m-4 unit?

It's About 15 K For The Merc 525efi System . A Few Of The Stuff Has To Replaced, Difrent Efi , And Closed Cooling System .call Or Email R-tech They Will Explaine Evrything To You ,very Nice Peaple .

Downtown42 03-22-2007 04:45 PM

so why does it state 8000. complete in PRA??

mikebrls 03-22-2007 06:32 PM

Thats Probly For The Hp 500 Carb Motor ?
I Got A Price Not To Long Ago And It Was Just About 15k A Peice For The 525efi Motor's Witch Still Is Not That Bad When You Concider 875 Hp With 7lb Boost
I Think Whipple With 7 Lb Of Boost Give You Just Under 800hp For About The Same Price , The R-tech Is Very Eficient.
Sorry I Cant Spell :)

Looks like 8k to me? WTF. Why do they lie in print?

Guy thinks maybe 10 max if they say 8...turns out to be double?
