Macbook Pro. Anyways, the MF was simple and worked. But as agreed (I think), time marches on and even better auxiliary injector controllers exist.

Heck, I remember something for Turbo Buicks (parts released) in the 90s which was very crude, especially compared to the MF.
I have one of those MFs sitting on a shelf. Came off a SC system for a '93 Trans Am. Has 3 injectors on a sandwich plate that bolts after the throttle body. Was planing to use it when fabricating the Paxton SC for my 928 but decided to go even more old school than the MF.......went with a 8:1 ratio FMU instead. Works like a charm, probably leaves hp on the table but I don't care, it has done it's job for over 12.5 years

The required tune is arguably more important than the new hardware pieces bolted onto the engine.
