Anyone running FiTech's new EFI system??

I was just wondering if anyone had installed or researched FiTech's new EFI system?

I have been thinking of going with Fast EZ-EFI 2.0 or Holley Terminator EFI.
Now I ran across FiTech's version and for $995, I think it might be hard to beat. I am still running my stock TPI fuel pump with return line, so just the TB and hand held should be all I need.

I know it is a new system, but I think the guys that developed it came from other big name companys.

Plus they have a N20 and boost compatible version. And it controls spark.
What do you guys think.

Hmmm...the price is certainly tempting, isn't it.

The only concern I have with this sort of system is the proprietary parts. If the IAC, PTS, CTS, etc. are not off-the-shelf O.E. style parts that you can buy at any parts store, then you have the potential to be in trouble when traveling, or if this company goes out of business.

For a little more money you get a life time warranty with the Fast 2.0 system.Some of the parts in the FItech are only guaranteed for 90 days.The complete system 1 year.

From what I read, they are GM off the shelf parts. Should be easy to find.

$2296 For the Fast 2.0 compared to the FiTech $995 is not just a little more money, but I get what you are saying.

I'm joking of course, but just had this movie scene flashback, and couldn't help myself.

Looks like Holley revealed a new product at SEMA a few days ago in the $995 range. It was not on there website when I checked, but should be soon.

Holley Terminator Stealth EFI

Thank you for posting this. I am about to start slowly purchasing parts for an LS swap and this looks like a possible option for getting around some wiring nightmares.

You are welcome.

Looks like the aftermarket has decide to start competing to bring a cost effective product that is simple. The thought of shelling out over $2k for an EFI unit will kill most builds.

What do you guys think about the annular discharge aspect of the Holley unit?
