Re: To Sniper or not to Sniper...?

Well it was a lot of work / time to install. Had to splice and lengthen some of the harnesses so it would not look like a snake pit. Needed a few extra fittings to route the fuel lines. Installing the O2 sensor was a battle in itself. Had to make a bracket to mount the fuel pump. Still need to add some isolators cause that pump is loud.

Could one person install the system on a Saturday, yes. It took me longer cause I wanted to make it a clean install. The install instructions are easy to follow and the start-up wizard walks you thru the initial set-up. Had my doubts, but it fired up right way. No pumping the gas, no half throttle while waiting for it to warm up to idle, basically none of the start-up fun from a carb set-up. Also no more leaky gaskets drying out from the desert heat.

I had my carb pretty well tuned or so I thought. This system woke my engine up. Was it worth it, hell yes. Could I have done a cheaper set-up to achieve the same results, sure. The only problem I have had is my O2 sensor crapped out on me after a year, which then lead to crappy performance. It was easy to change and now she runs like a beast.
