Post Which FI is the Best IYO and Why?

I wanted to put together a little poll and see what people think the best FI is and why, so here it is.

This is pretty much a popularity contest so don't beat each other up to bad.

  1. Whipple
  2. Edelbrock
  3. Magnuson
  4. ProCharger
  5. GM Performance
  6. Single Turbo
  7. Twin Turbo

*Not in any particular order

For max power probably twin turbos and procharger. Magnuson enhances the car the best in my opinion though. Though I may be a bit bias.

Not sure how relevant the results will be with everyone's bias towards their own choice. For this reason I will not vote for the Maggie (that I love, btw).

Also, the quality or value of votes is clearly not uniform, my vote would be worth very little compared to that of, say KingLT1 or Joshinator, let alone Ted Jannetty or other renowned shop owners... and we have already arrived at some serious issues

Fair point. They didn't come to mind when I thought about this because it seemed most people go for a supercharger over a turbo. Let me see if I can modify the poll.

I think the LT guys are a bit behind the curve in terms of power production. If I was to mod my car, turbo and enough fuel to supply how much power I want to make. No need for cam, heads ported intakes, throttle bodies...

Nonsense! Your vote counted...until you didn’t vote Whipple.

For those who have gotten the lt1 maggie 2300 kit is the crank pulley a gm lt4 pulley or an ati. I see the whipple comes with the ati and the edlebrock comes with the gm i cant tell.with the maggie. The install video i watched showed ati but they could have just added it. Instrunctions dont show a good picture of it.

Mine was manufactured in Nov 2017 and came with the LT4 (CTS-V) crank pulley. That's the part specified on Magnuson's bill of materials, too.

I think they are all pretty good in 2020. I will say there must be a reason why the big 3 motor companies have used PD on all their flagship cars for the last decade or longer.
