I just poked around the link, haven't really done any researching. Doesn't have the "WOW" of the ASM/Merc HP EFI/Volvo/Marine Power intake, but at $2-3k less plus the ability to use any carb intake manifold & flame arrestor it sure looks interesting.
What I'm still stuck on is fuel delivery. I'm no expert at EFI fuel systems, so I need to figure out the nuts & bolts of a reliable system. |
Very cool stuff on that website.

Im no expert either i just know that i know enough to get me home with a carb.:rolleyes:
so who's gonna be the guinea pig and fork out for one of these? I have a set of RevMarine risers with O2 bungs... |
And for those of you feeling really daring. You can try this on a budget.

my concerns would be finding parts.

rdoactive,
I am using the MSII on my 565" motor. Took a bit of a learnig curve but it is working quite nicely. I did modify the driver circuits for the Low Z injectors, to a more reliable setup. The Megasquirt works much better than the Culter system I ran for years!! Cost is low, but then you have to figure in the hardware that I already had. D*ck |
That system has no real advantage over a carb. You are still running a "wet" manifold and not taking advantage of the fuel injectors atomizing cababilities. A multiport setup is the better way to go without question.

Why complicate the issue?
|
What issue? Or are you saying to just run a carb and be done with it?

Frank I don't see it making any more power than a carburator, when used in a boat. |
