Was it hard to tune? How did the tuner got the injectors data?

I'll let the pic speak for itself. All FIC does is send the data from ID injectors.

Don't know what injector that is on the right but it's not FIC.

FIC Injector. Funny how they look like the same injector.

Ok, well how's this, that's what was sold to me as a set of FIC 80's... lol. For $150 price difference, just get ID's. It's a no brainer. They do start out as the same exact injector though.

Might want to talk to That Guy.

Yea I think they sent you the wrong thing, at least you got it taken care of. Here's what I got from the fic website.

Fast doesn't provide data. You can try to just tune around them, and may get it driving ok, but it will never be perfect since you aren't setting up the injectors correctly. Can you just keep tweaking the tune to try to get it good, yep, is that a good way to tune, not in my opinion.

A big injector can run just as good as a stock injector. Comes down to injector quality and the tuner.

We use FIC all the time with no issue's. As for DATA. I've had data from FIC long before ID hit the mainstream market. Everybody has a selling point.

Iam Broke · 08-02-2014, 09:04 AM

No problems with my FIC 95's getting dialed in. Their data is fine.

forklord · 08-02-2014, 09:51 PM

Ive heard good and bad about every injector. From what ive heard/seen its mostly the skill of the tuner.

That's what I thought.

I have the FIC (Fuel Injector Connection) 80s. They do not look like the ones That_Guy posted a pic of, they look like the ID850s and the other FICs everyone posted. I bought them used, and FIC still provided me excellent customer service, and the data and information I needed.

I've tuned both and the FIC data is definitely different compared to the ID data.

NO there not its just the tuner doesn't have to work hard to tune since the tables are made all ready for IDS! You can tune the Fast just as well!

Talk to 21st century muscle in Addison tx that sells all brands or FIC injectors that only sale FIC's the gentleman with the euro accent..

both said same thing injectors are injectors they made same power with both, no idle issues but, ultimately its the tuners preference so stop this BS..

Fast are just fine!

7 or 8 pulls on the dyno to make there 500.00 clams!!! make them earn it and use the money you would of saved from IDS on meth kit or better heat exchanger!

if your dead set and listen to scare tactics call phasetek they will get them 150.00 lower than whats advertised..
