I have one on my 420A julian. As far as price goes, it all depends on where you get everything from. Best thing for you to do is search. You are the only one that knows how much money you are willing to spend. I bought mine for $200 not including the fuel lines. By the way..tick tock tick tock tick tock...track day is a couple of weeks away. Hope you will be ready to run with me by then.

its really not worth it for the cost, I used to use a RRFPR setup and hated every minute of it...you could get a MegaSquirt standalone for not much more....and it is a full standalone that decodes the 420a crank signal....or just use it to run fuel, whichever

Not a bad choice to go with the megasquirt. Seems to be a little overkill only in my opinion only though since he is only running a stage 2 setup, boosting 6-9 psi with what I have heard to be only stock internals (I could be wrong, not 100% sure). From what I researched, the Megasquirt is an outstanding stand alone system for someone who is pushing a lot more than 10-15psi of boost, an 8 injector setup, portfueler, and lower compression bottom end. Megasquirt would be perfect for stage 3 or above. Stage 2...not quite sure if its overkill or not but to each his own. Thats just my .02

Fuel Rail?? I just used the stock fuel rail on my 95 because it has the Schraeder port to connect my FP gauge. 230 is easily attainable with your setup, just tune it right so you dont go BOOOOOM.

yeah 230 hp is easy to get sense i got 217 hp without any components such as...

egt gauge, apec II and etc...

I do recommend you getting those components because it will make it easier to tune and more Accurate.

I'm still have the hahn FMU but later in the future i'm going with the Vortech... or maybe something else... if you're only going to have 230 hp i think you should go with the hahn for the time being and you don't have to change the fuel rail only the fuel injectors...

yo when do you want to check out my ride??
