    Retrotek - NOT A SALES PITCH, but I'm almost sold...

     



    Spoke with these guys yesterday, their Powerjection III system sounds like a really nice product if it works as advertised

    According to Bruce at Retrotek/Professional Products, the system is self tuning initially requiring only a few variables you need to enter and then it creates it base map once your vehicle comes up to operating temerature. You can edit the fuel curve at anytime with a laptop or leave it as is. I imagine the future update, the PJ3+ (see below,) will allow spark timing/advance and fuel threshold tuning as well.

    In Feb 2010 they are coming out with a PowerjectionIII+ that offers spark control and FOD (fuel on demand) w/o a return line by modulating the supplied fuel pump run/stop via fuel pressure sensor at the rail head. Bruce said the spark control feature will work with any 2-wire distributor (sorry no points gentlemen) and aftermarket ignitions and will ship with or without distributor, for some reason it is not HEI compatible but that's not the end of the world either

    Personally, I might skip the FOD feature but will wait for the spark control feature for the ultimate in bolt-on EFI, no pricing announced for that but the current PJ3 already has my interested piqued - bolt-on EFI for less than $2000 that works with any 4150 bolt pattern intake... and it looks flash too!

    I am very impressed so far, and possibly see a few of these in my future, now to find the funds

    Anyone have any experience with or opinions of these, or similar, to share?
