Sounds like all are excited about this feature.
Does it allow you to test your fuel pressure without starting the car?
Does it make the car start better or is it easier on the injectors?
Any other benefits?
in modern cars when place the key in the ignition and turn it before engaging the starter you can hear a HUMMM . Thats the fuel pump priming the system. Similar to pulling out a choke on a older car. typically it means less starter revolutions before the engine kicks.

Default Solid-State DME Relays Now Available!

I am pleased to announce the Solid-State DME Relay is now for sale at www.ftech9.com. It is available as a stock replacement or with the additional “Pump-Prime” Feature. I would like to thank everyone for their interest and support in making this product a reality. I hope this will be the first of many new products to come.

Installed my new SS relay with the Pump Prime yesterday and it works great. Love the Fuel Pump Prime feature. My car now starts in about 1 second of cranking instead of 2 - 2.5 seconds.

Judging by the carbon on the contacts of the old original relay it replaced I am glad to have made the switch.

Thanks much Joel.

PS Any chance there might be a Rogue NA Tune coming???

Default Well, that went fast...

It took less than 45 minutes to completely sell out of Solid-State Relays. The good news is I will have another batch toward the end of next week. I apologize to anyone who was unable to place an order, the demand turned out to be much higher than I anticipated.

Out of curiosity, how much do you figure it cost you from concept to production. There's all kinds of things I think of for cars-and motorcycles-I've worked that I believe would improve them, but I know it's a limited market, and I'm no business man.
