Tim,


I am trying to figure the difference on the two units:
Am I correct the the one on my 86 uses a different rubber pressure insert depending on the boost level. With the Begi unit you have to adjust the unit until you dial it in, is that true?
That said would the best way is add lager injectors with a adjustable fuel regulator and shark tune it.

P.S. When will a tuner be available for rent?

Why should he? The kit is designed for the Vortec unit, end of story. Tim could go on and on about why he uses a certain brand hose clamp, or supplier of silicone tubing......

What's the point? You are never going to buy a kit, you are still a troll around here that was banned for threatening a moderator (and others) yet somehow allowed back when IB took over:
https://rennlist.com/forums/5149825-post102.html

What are you looking for here? Why not share if you have some specific technical details?

I'm sure Tim is refraining from specifics to avoid bashing other kits / products. Why do I say that? Because my experience with the BEGI unit was very similar to Tim's.
It's now in the garbage (or land fill) and I will never touch one of them again.
IMO they are junk and three different dyno shops (or was it four) I took my car to (while the BEGI was installed) all suggested step one to fixing my fueling problems was dumping the BEGI unit.

They were correct, and the Vortec unit is still installed on my car. 100% trouble free since the day it was installed.

What for? I am just asking people not to use them on the MURF928 kits.

Tell ya what; why don't you explain the differences, it will be more entertaining.
I'll give you 3 attempts and if I think you are incorrect I will offer an explanation. Sound good?

No fighting kids, I don't want to stop the car and make you walk home
You sparked my interest on this and was wondering what the real difference is.

Almost.
You do not need an adjustable regulator if you SharkTune.

Screw that, I'm not sparring with Andrew again. Lorelei still doesn't believe me about the teeth marks on my butt.

C'mon Hacker! Tell the whole story. They were self-inflicted bite marks.

Tim,

Without an inter-cooler will I not be getting anymore boost or power for the buck?

I think I understand the question.... and the answer is, not really.
If you want to get rid of the FMU, going with the Stage 3 chips would be a good thing to do.

We ran a Stage 1 on Shane's car and maxed out the stock injectors so the Stage 1, the way it is today is about as far as you want to take it. You might be able to get away with a little more boost on the Stage 3 tune with no intercooler.

And you have a inter-cooler available yet ?
I know the 86 was a pain to design !
