FiTech Go EFI - Fuel Injection Without Complication

You might have considered switching from a carburetor to electronic fuel injection before, but held back because of worries about complexity and price. We visited FiTech to take a look at their Go EFI throttle body injection systems, and came away impressed with all the different possibilities, as well as how affordable they've made the conversion.

[@MarkDrumzEntertainment]

please please tell what company in riverside ca you were at im near there and like to have them put one in my 96 Dodge Ram 1500 please need that info

[@silverbullet5905]

It’s a throttle body with common shared injectors. Basically an electric carburetor, I’ve heard stories regarding controller issues so be aware and do further research.

[@ratstarone]

Hello I have a 98 Ford F150 302 motor that I want to pull out take the fuel injector off and put a carburetor on it. Then stick that motor inside of my 77 Mustang Cobra. Which setup would I need?

[@amadaandrade4784]

I now have it down here at sea level and I need to go larger on the jets or even smaller on the air bleeds combination it has 98 jets in it now.what all is involved to install the 8 injector version that can handle 1200 hp.

[@jaimetrevino2295]

[@JoseGOrta-zl2fm]

What would you recommend for a 1978 F100 Lariat 460 Engine?

[@billycranston5481]

[@MerpSquirrel]

This is amazing!

[@darwinidris4001]

You all prolly dont give a damn but does anyone know a method to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the password. I love any assistance you can offer me!

[@owenmatteo9527]

@Darwin Idris instablaster :)

[@darwinidris4001]

@Owen Matteo Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@darwinidris4001]

@Owen Matteo it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thank you so much, you really help me out!

[@owenmatteo9527]

@Darwin Idris You are welcome :)

[@tomwertz8252]

I have an issue with your set up. You are running the units backwards which puts the throttle linkage on the passenger side and all of the wiring sticking out the front. You are doing this because the ECU interferes with the distributor. This might work on a run stand but what about a car that you need linkage and a clean looking installation? I noticed because I am trying to install this unit and it does not fit the way it should.

[@177SCmaro]

The price on the 1200hp max version is really pushing me in that direction. If it's ethanol/methonal compatible I'm sold.

[@v8hotrodlincoln]

177SCmaro I call BS

[@v8hotrodlincoln]

Made in China assembled USA

[@v8hotrodlincoln]

We don't even make electronics...

[@baad2003mach1]

can you run e85 on these carbs?

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+baad2003mach1 Yes, you can run e85. Please refer to fitechefi.com to see how it will affect a given application. Thanks for watching!

[@michaeltallent247]

does this include a electronic fuel pump?

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+Michael Tallent Yes, they are included with the complete kit packages as well as separate: fitechefi.com/default.asp.pg-Products

[@nachomax1639]

If they would only sponsor a Pontiac powered Firebird. ;-)

[@josephupholstery1416]

Can i put this in my 85 grand marquis LS

[@josephupholstery1416]

Its fuel infection but i may have to update it

[@TheDustyaman]

Can you put one of these on a slant 6?

[@qualitycontrol5421]

TheDustyaman im looking into that myself. Just heard about these guys. Ill let you know if i find anything out. You find anything helpful? What you have going on with your tower of power?

[@TheDustyaman]

Karl Curr Nothing yet. I need to rebuild it and up the compression. She's a tired one.

[@qualitycontrol5421]

Gotcha. I have maybe 3k miles on mine. Full forged, 10.5:1 you can see a vid on my channel

[@TheDustyaman]

Karl Curr how's it feel for a slant

[@troymacleod7944]

I love mine nitrous combo works great but I have the fcc had no problems but saying there is no return is a flat out lie you’ll likely need to drop your tank as the return line comes off the fcc and they call it the vent line so I ended up maki g one in the filler tube but it was a bitch

[@jayrhacellhoney]

will this work on a 4 cyl. japanese car?

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+JayRhaz Fernandez Unfortunately not, these are for American vehicle applications

[@Jimmy-Volmer]

Explain this Bone Head. Where are you gonna find a 4150 style intake for a Japanese or any four cylinder? Unless you get one custom made, you won't find one cuz they don't exist.

[@reyperez3424]

+Jimmy_Volmer go to China, they can make you an intake manifold

[@NcJuan]

could that work on smaller engines?

[@dnmack1]

Do they make a port injection system?

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

fitechefi.com/products/goport/ Check it out

[@dnmack1]

Power Automedia Thank you!

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

No problem!

[@carpspudpicker3031]

Boat application?

[@r3rd698]

Is it made in the USA?

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+Mac Stuffy Yes it is

[@r3rd698]

[@McDougal51]

What about marine engines

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+ McDougal51 We apologize as we are an automotive publication that focuses mainly on car and truck power plants

[@351cleavland]

A commercial disguised as a television segment.

[@bibleisabsolutetruth7922]

Cool wonder if it better then running fuel injection ? Now for the driver hitting the wall www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1022/1022_01.asp

[@Jimmy-Volmer]

Ok, wait just a minute. From what I've been told and have read, you need an aftermarket ignition system for any efi kit to run properly. Now you're telling me this isn't so. How is that possible? Again, from what I've read and have been told, these kits simply won't run properly without say an MSD or Mallory type ignition unless you really luck out. Am I wrong? Oh by the way, I was told this by Richard Nedbal, a technician/dealer for the FAST and Holley efi systems. If you're in the industry, you should know who he is.

[@PowerPerformanceYouTube]

+Jimmy_Volmer Please don't hesitate to speak to a representative at FiTech to answer your question regarding their EFI kits. Here's the link to their website, which has all of the contact information you need: fitechefi.com

[@rogerramjet5092]

YOU should know that each brand has slightly different requirements. Mr Nedbal will tell you this himself. In fact the FITECH can run the ignition for you. At lest a distributor base don't know about DIS(distrbutorless ignition system) ie:LS coil near plug or ford & chryslers coil on plug perhaps not. You would need to go to there websit or call them. Don't know where your getting your info from most will run off the stock distributor. This a design feature to keep over all cost down. So yes you are wrong!!! They encourage after market because a hotter spark is a good thing. In the case of MSD they also make highly respected ignition boxes and distributors but they are not going to put off the guy who is stretching to make the cost of the EFI. by limiting it to only aftermarket ignitions. That's bad business. Look at FITECH best value on the market that I am a ware of; last I checked they were living the dream sold out on back order as of dec 2016..

[@Jimmy-Volmer]

+roger depew I reallize each efi system is different. I also don't have a clue where you ot the idea that I was talking about replacing distributors. I simply was trying to confirm, or unconfirm, the info I got from Rich Nedbal. He said, and I quote, "These efi kits need clean signal", referring to the cd ignition boxes. This was roughly three years prior to Fitech coming to the market. He told me speciffically the FAST kits, which I was considerring buying, would not run without an MSD style ignition 99.9% of the time. He only became a tech/dealer of the Holley systems within the last year or so, shortly before Firech came out. I have also conversed with others in the efi game and they all said the same thing, that you'll need an aftermarket ignition box. i have tried getting through to someone wgo can answer my questions satisfactorily but they either don't respond or thery answer half my questions but don't answer that speciffic one. So I guess I'm gonna it again. How is it that every other system on the market requires you to have an MSD box, or similar, yet Fitech doesn't??

Stop 🛑 the Freaking Loud Background Music... it's annoying very annoying don't ever put loud music when you're speaking. Learn how to make videos.

[@dsruddell]

i dont know what kind of idiots do this. you know they could have adjusted it

[@johnjewell9633]

I totally agree! Why do you need all that freakin" noise? It's very irritating!!!!!!!

[@paulbimmerman6357]

before you buy a fi-tech system read this.. after many years of loving my carb i decided to try efi.. to save some money i tried fi tech.. it never worked properly.. after fooling with it for many months we had to send it back for a complete firmware update. it was a brand new system.. so now after 4 months of my car not running we had to spend many more hours with it. only to have the software die.. all 4 injectors failed. once again the system was useless. fi tech would not help me at all.. i sent the unit back to see if they would stand by their system and refund my money, but like before crickets.. fi tech does not stand behind their system.. before you decide on efi, check carefully and be very weary before you spend your money on a fi tech system. i went with holley and am very happy..be aware..

[@TheVintagetamiya]

Carbs are way better.NO that explains all the new cars coming out with carbs. Have you ever driven a car with carbs at high altitude not fun.

[@cottersautocare8882]

there are no new cars coming out with carbs in the domestic market

[@khalid749]

I think that was his point...

[@logik316]

But my carb gets 200 miles per gallon!

[@tycheez85]

Cotters Auto Care fuck no

[@grabir01]

no thanks... Stay with the carb... Way way better.

[@LinkinPark4Ever1996]

grabir01 What about very cold starts?

[@MrTaylorTexas]

This is just a commercial.

[@starcloakstarside9719]

Contrary. The only advantage I’ve ever seen with EFI over Carbureted is cold starts, which I personally have never had a problem with. Never had a well-tuned carburetor that made less power than an EFI on the same block. I’ve drag-raced people boasting EFI and TBI setups in “professionally-built” engines and walked away with thousands in bets. That being said, even most “modern” mechanics wouldn’t know where to start when it comes to tuning carbs save for KZbin tutorials, and they’re gonna spend only the amount of time they need to get it idling nicely. They aren’t gonna spend the time necessary to meter and jet it, and half of them don’t even know what a carburetor is to begin with. So TBI and EFI systems are a very good alternative for young yuppies who don’t know what they’re doing, but don’t even start pretending that there’s any “huge advantages” between EFI and a well-tuned carburetor.

I wouldn’t buy FiTech if you paid me. They have the worst customer service in the business and terrible quality issues as well. No thanks.
