They have a couple of different kits. I got the EFI-4 power adder. The EFI-4 is for NA and runs $995. The power adder is set up for NA, Boost, or NO2 right out of the box and is $1200. I talked to the tech dept before I bought it and asked if the regular EFI-4 could be upgraded later to the power adder and they said it couldn't. The discharge nozzles in the venturis are different and the venturis can't be swapped. Also, the power adder's software is different and allows you full control over the maps with an external laptop which the regular EFI-4 doesn't. You are restricted to using the handheld screen for the regular EFI-4.
Thats cheaper then the FAST system and supports boost for less then the basic FAST ez EFI system. I really like this other companys remote mounted
Fuel system too. Thats nice for the guy who doesnt want to deal with return lines and inline fuel pump. Keep us updated on how you like the system when you fire it up. [patriot]

Is that clear or silver powder coat? I was looking at "super chrome" to get that polished look.

I didn't get the command center. I already had a fuel tank with a sump and return line, so I'm running an external Walbro 255lph.

The powdercoat is "silver steel" or something like that. It was the closest they had to natural aluminum. I originally just wanted to clearcoat it but they talked me out of it. They said it yellows over time and looks bad.

I once sandblasted an intake, cleaned it, prepped it and clear coated it. It looked close to that finish but like you said they will eventually yellow over time especially with cheap can clear.

Im gonna buy this setup next month, but that command center got me [Confused] not sure if I trust it. I think ill just run a return and external pump.

The return setups are needed for higher horsepower applications. With the blower, you need to do a return line. I used my stock line for the return and ran 1/2 up the trans tunnel for the feed. If you don't have a electric pump already look at the in tank pumps. They are really quiet. Make sure to put the pump on a relay too so it's gets plenty of power.

What are you using for a pump?

I see you running a dual plane. If you have tunning issues this video may provide some insight.

Yeah, I saw that episode a few days ago. I'm hoping because the LS is a much bigger beast that I won't have the same issue. If not, I'll just sell this intake and go with a Vic Jr which I'll eventually need to swap to once I go forced induction.

That's a great looking setup. Can't wait to see how it runs.
