From a reliability standpoint I still have my very first VC-25D installed on my car. Been there runing the same injection pump since April 2004 when I first designed that version of controller. Mounted it on top of MAS and it is still operating fine.

I was able to get up to 17psi on stock turbos and 360cc fuel injectors on mine with no knock using 50/50 alcohol injection and MBC. No it did not hold 17psi to redline, only 9Bs.

No dyno numbers, but did do Gtech and got 420hp for what it is worth.

Best regards,

Dan

Hey Dan. Saw your post on the SRT forums.
With the complete kit are you plan on using somthing other than the Demand type Shurflo pump?

The first kit we release, this week as a matter of fact, will be based on the Demand type Shurflo pump. When designed properly, pump internals and controller drive characteristics, these systems work very well and reliably for the price. We are doing research into other types of systems, but it will be a while before all the engineering testing and dyno testing is complete. If dyno testing shows no significant gains in performance it is unlikly we will launch the system for sale unless there is significant improvment in reliability.

Best regards,

Dan

Complete water/methanol injection kit now available:

Others sell the same system for $399, but during our sale the system is only $316 when you add in your choice of controller.

Still have the sell going on, I may be making a purchase within the next week.

I do have one question. The VC-25D mentions quickly shutting of to prevent misfire when boost drops. does the VC-25 do the same? it doesn't mention it in the description. I don't have a MAF, so I don't immagine the VC-25D would be of much help.

The sale has ended at this time. With other people raising their prices on injection systems at the 1st of the year, ours is now very reasonably priced.

I would do free shipping in 48 states for 3Si members. I can PM you the discount code to use for free shipping.

The operation of the VC-25 and VC-25D are identical with the exception that the VC-25D allows for additional dimention of control when connected to a MAF sensor.

The VC-25 will work well for you.

Best regards,

Dan

BTW: which front bumper is that on your car. I am looking into one down the road and like the looks of yours. how was the fit?

Ok, sounds fair enough. ATM my decision is between the devils own kit and yours, but I will hopefully make the purchase within the next week or so, whichever I end up with.

The front bumper on my car is the Cianci Novara bumper. its a very well made bumper, fits perfectly, even with only 5 bolts holding it on (there are more bolt holes, I just didnt use them all). It is also extremely sturdy. My car was way too low when i first installed my coilovers and I would bump the bottom all the time on speed bumps and dips in the road, but it took every hit like a champ and is still in perfect shape.

Thanks for the Bumper info, I will have to look into that. Besides good looks and air flow, install and robustness was also was I was interested in.

Let me know what your decisions points are for the kit between us and DO. Always looking for customer feedback. The DO system needs an external MAP sensor, were it is built into the VC-25.

Dan

yea, the major differences between the kits that I noticed (without know specific specs on the hardware) were the map sensor and the tank. I figure I would be able to splice into my 3 bar map sensor... but don't know that I would actually want to knowing that the map sensor is the basis for my entire tune.. lol

[dlabonte]

Yes that would depend on the input impeadance of the DO controller.
It would have to be very high so as not to have any current leakage that would affect the reading of your existing MAP sensor.

As far as tanks, were you going to do trunk or engine bay install?

Best regards,

Dan
