Default D1sc

I was just wondering if you FI guys could give me a ballpark figure for the cost of this system. I know I'll need the other supporting mods, fuel pump,injectors,etc. I've been shopping around and the cheapest I found the D1sc kit was for $4900. Just curious of the amont of dough you guys had wrapped up in this system.

I was researching nitrous for along time but I think I would rather go with this. I've been doing alot of research on the turbo/blower systems and for what ever reason I think the D1sc siutes me fine. Right now I have heads/cam and I'm going to get a forged shortblock hopefully by the end of summer. The Bank of Wife permitting!

If that is the "tuner" kit which comes with no fuel or tune, then grab it up. Then pick up some 60# injectors and a fuel pump and get tuned with LS1 edit on a dyno. When all is said and done, you could stay at $6K or so.

It is the tuner kit. Its actually $4991.30 with shipping, without injectors and fuel pump. Is that a pretty good deal ? Or can it be found cheaper. Most places were around $5500 for the same kit. I dont want to put up the link because it's a non-sponser.

I can't give out my prices in print, per ATI's rules as they don't allow prices in any form of print that are lower than 7.5% of MSRP. I will say one thing though, call me... 260 244-4808. Bob

I have everything but the rear,injectors and the fuel pump. My tranny is built as well. Of course I still need the blower. Another big plus is I do all the install stuff my self and the tuning isnt an issue. So with out the rear I'm thinking around 6k. I'm not going to crank it up right away so my bottom end will be fine for the psi I'll be running. I know the bug will eventually bite again though.

Thanks for your post Bob, I'll try and call next week some time. I dont plan on getting this system till at least the end of July/August.

I'm still not sure what I'm going to do, but I want this pretty bad. My other half isnt to hip for it though.
