Mike,
I have grown up with EFI from 1990 and know the difference between the
Fitech,MSD,Holly,etc. vs the Howell based unit with the EBL Flash drive ECM.
Why do people not get the economy from these units?
It is all about Ignition timing control and program.The EBL has so much
computing inside the ECM that the others cannot hold a candle to it.
Also there are over 200-300 GMC owners that are running the EBL system.
There are lot of people running the basic Howell system without the EBL
option and not understanding the system.
We sell ALL the EFI units, but only the EBL system deliver the economy that
people are seeking . I can tell you that most of the people with the EBL
are getting minimum of 1-2 mpg economy.
It is a plug and play unit and we have few owners that know lot about it
should one develop problems.
Contact me should you have questions.
If you think for a second that by going to a EFI, you get around the vapor
lock problem, you do not understand fuel delivery.
