Default New FAST EFI system

Just saw this in the magazine. Direct replacement for carb, does not require a laptop, and is supposed to retail for $1900 complete with everything needed. The other big difference is it will support a lot of power according to their ad, where similar systems usually peak at 450-500 hp max. Here's the info off their site:

FAST™ EZ-EFI™ Self Tuning Fuel Injection Delivers Easy Carb-To-EFI Conversion


New system features “self tuning” mode for simple and affordable plug & play installation

Fear not fuel injection fans. FAST™ has just made it easier than ever to convert your engine from carburetion to fuel injection with the new FAST™ EZ-EFI™ Self Tuning Fuel Injection System. The most important feature of this amazingly efficient system is the self-tuning operation that does not require chasing components, expert tuning experience or a laptop computer to tune. Simply hook it up, answer the basic set-up Wizard questions on the included hand-held display, and the system truly tunes itself. The FAST™ EZ-EFI™ Self Tuning Fuel Injection System is a totally complete system including the ECU, wide-band oxygen sensor, wiring harness, fuel injectors, fuel pump kit and other assorted components, including the innovative new 4150 Throttle Body from FAST™.

The FAST™ 4150 Throttle Body delivers the total package approach for anyone with an existing 4150-type intake manifold. Everything comes with the throttle body, including appropriate fuel injectors and fuel rails. In addition, it works with the original carb-style linkage and is ready to accept all OEM sensors. Available with injectors in four different flow rates to tune the system specifically for your engine, this well-engineered and high performance-intended product is a true plug & play system that will satisfy the requirements of FAST™ XFI™ engine controllers and all other major systems.

Yep, saw that a while back.

The manufacturers are really going after the "I want EFI but I'm scared of it" demographic, making things as "bolt in" as possible and even trying the whole self tuning thing...

Heck, even Professional Products is coming out with a throttle body "self tuning" kit. Knowing how PP stuff is...

Hopefully this whole push for the entry-level self tuning stuff gets the manufacturers to implement OEM-like block learn long term tables & routines into their ECU's and the more advanced aftermarket ECU's will benefit too.

I'm curious if that will work with a blown application.

I am getting ready to either order the FAST or the Boss EFI. I am leaning towards the Boss EFI since it looks more like a carb than the FAST (I want stock looking carb but with EFI advantages), but I will buy whichever will have the better software after further research. This is the Boss EFI I am looking into but anodized black. The guys at Boss EFI state they can be used on blow thru blower applications.

Thanks for the pics Charley I completely missed it at SEMA...DOH. Do you all think it will really self tune? Since it's throttle body injected I would be a little nervous about getting a lean hole.

Default Boss TBI=Corona

The look of the "Boss-EFI" throttle body is great. They are about five miles away, I will pay them a visit.

I would like to test one on my LS-3 (427) dyno mule engine. I have the GM "spider" intakes both EFI & carb.

My IGN8-1-H igntion will provide the spark.

Would there be an interest in the results

A tech over at fast said that the EZ Fast system will not work with boost.
