Default Fire In The Hole!!!

well we got the car fired up last night finally but ran into some problems with it idling.....we are going to have to relocate the throttle body closer to the intake...being that the t-body is so far from the intake when you burp the throttle the dfi pulses fuel but it doesnt have the back-up of air to feed the motor so it bogs when u hit it...im sure it would be ok once up on the tranny brake but it would be near impossible to tune the idle characteristics so we are are going to move the throttle body into the car about 6" from the intake...we cant mount it to the back of the intake so it it will actually be inline and mounted under the dash...we didnt think we would have a problem but thats what we get when trying to be innovative...hahah...should have it fixed and back up and running tomorrow...

chad

the FAST system doesnt have any options like that...its just a matter of moving the t-body closer to the intake..we didnt think it was going to be a problem but once we started it we almost immediately could feel the difference when u cracked the throttle...it also mad it very finicky trying to tune it
