Anybody running an after market fuel injection system called SDS? Interested in opinions. Thx in advance!

SDS works good on a stock 2.0 If it's fuel only I can install and tune it in one day.

Your Ljet fuel injectors aren't the best (except for Ljet), 2.0 injectors and a resistor pack (free with SDS) would be the easiest to install.
Needs a O2 WB sensor but it doesn't need a gauge, exhaust and intake bungs welded on, a small plate made to the throttle plate for the TPS and then wire it up.
I can and have done fuel only systems in one day, including tuning, but some of the wiring housekeeping might not be perfect.

I ran it on my old 1.8 DD engine for 2-3 years, except for tuning I never even had the controller on it. Way smaller tuning learning curve, dyno time not needed, perfect for old farts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
Good enough on my high buck 2.6, 180hp, nickies, T4 engine.

For your 914 I'd switch to a djet plenum, and air cleaner box, if you get me to do it I have all that ready to go, plus we could tackle the inner long stiffeners. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Since my engine was originally 2.0, D-jet don’t I have the plenum and 2.0 injectors?
