83TechMaster Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 the guy's at FIP tell me they will be at the national meet and will be demoing their products so be patient as they do not do this as their full time jobs YET!!! but they do produce high quality cost efftive products for a fairly low price. this is something the starquest world needs more of. ;D ;D ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kr0nus Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 O well I see someone posted them first! So that top plate for the TBI bolts right on to the stock TBI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88TSI_Rob Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 I think that is how it works. I believe that's an '83 car and they had a unique TB housing. I don't know much about them so I'm having trouble trying to make out what all was changed. FPR looks like some backyard engineering... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim_C. Posted May 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 They supposedly have a different top for the more popular TB too. One that will run standard injectors, so you can put whatever size in there you want with better sealing too. I don't think they like to sell just the plates though. They want to sell the whole management package, but I am hoping to just get the TB plate and maybe their injectors. That would be a major improvement at hopefully a very reduced cost compared to MPI and or a management system too. If I spent a lot of money, I would just go MPI. Their system also gets rid of the MAS, so it is a good thing I'm sure. I heard their 1/4 mile times don't reflect 500HP on the 8 injector set-up. It is hard to say from one look at the track though. It takes several runs with tuning changes to dial things in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83TechMaster Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 the 83 in the pics is my car although those pics where shot when we were still working out the bugs(mine was the first 83 they had done and as you know the 83's are a whole nother animal) that fuel pressure Regulator is the stock one and was formerly connected to the TB and is going to be replaced but i just wanted to get the car running first(so we fixed it up to work with the new system). the engine compartment looks much cleaner now and the car is running great. i have a few newer pics if sombody wants to post them.

83TechMaster Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 the reason the 1/4 mile times dont reflect the HP is because their tranny and rear end would not get the power to the ground that's why they are working on the tremec 3550 tranny swap ;D ;D ;D.

Tim_C. Posted May 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 That makes sense to me. I'd love to see that tranny available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 What quarter mile times are we talking about? Whats this about not being able to get the power to the ground with the stock trans? Why is that? And what could you possibly get for a computer thats only $450? A Megasquirt? Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrasta Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 WOW.. I would still love to keep the FMIC just for the teeth factor But WOW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83TechMaster Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 the 1/4 mile times are high 12's with 3.5sec 60ft times so as you can see the car was not getting the power to the ground at the launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelby Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 yep he was haveing a little launch problem alright , it's call'd too much tire,, those slicks were just too much for the clutch , quite a few of us have been there done that,, it shows up clear as day in the vid's of him runing the slicks answer smaller slicks or lower gears , i'd go lower gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83TechMaster Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 so shelby where you there in gainsville? you are right the slicks made the car look like it had no clutch lol!!! but they are building their car to launch hard and not gentle like EIP does so thats why they are changing the tranny and modifying the rear diff.

I have seem alot of great advancements made modifying these cars by users and these guys by far have come up with a comeplete system thats works. They have my full support! I hope we all appreciate the efforts these types of users have made. My hat go's off to all of you, *DM, Lizard, ProfessorQuest, Shelby, Artinist and my new found friends at http://www.fuelinjectionpro.com , Edward and Scott. If you didn't see your name, don't worry I know who you are and you are appreciated. Keep up the good work guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

artinist Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 as for the EIP car that did one pass on NOS and then disappeared, might as well not have done it in the first place. a lot of things are possible on a racecar. i want to see it run on 91 octane off the bottle. it will probably do high 12s.
