both efi....


my diesel is next. i am making an additional unit for the 6.5 that will be powering the ranger. it is an aged engine and i EXPECT FULLY to see an actual measurable improvement of 7-10% running the balls off of it.

if that doesnt happen i will be using a known unit to test with...say one of yours or whomever.
