The powerjection 3 will handle the boost and is made in the USA. Fast copied it and is trying to out advertize it but the Powerjection is the best bang for the buck period.

Also Pro Products just recieved their Patent on this system. Fast is a good company but i think everyone is brain washed and afraid to step outside the box. As of today there are over 1000 sucessfull installs on the power3. That must count for something. Also you can buy it cheaper without having to get 10 buddies to chip in.

They are still only capped at 550hp so boost wouldnt really matter at that power level.

I have been thinking about going to an EFI fuel tank with an in-tank pump instead of the external pump that comes with the kit. Any thoughts on going that direction?

I'd only have one comment about an internal pump vs external ---- the FACTORIES use an INTERNAL pump... and they work for lots and lots of miles... RIGHT?

How does this system work with a stock fuel tank?

any EFI system needs an uninterrupted fuel source, so any air sucked into the pump is an immediate "hiccup" with efi, vs a carb that has a fuel bowl to cover up such issues.

It will work with a stock tank but will have issues when the tank gets to lower levels.

That is what I was concerned about. I would think that there would have been a solution thought of with the kit.
