A while ago, I mentioned that I was going to go with a aux fuel kit. At the time, I was still researching which way to go. Throttle body, Boomba four port or at the time, Stratified was the only four port that sprayed fuel into all eight intake runners. The throttle body style is easier to install, but the drawback is equal fuel to all four cylinders is not a sure thing. Stratified four port system has a big drawback in that the alternator loses one mount attach point. So, I was going to go with the Boomba setup. I can live with the fuel only being injected into four of the eight intake runners and also I could deal with the fact that the Boomba system has a split fuel rail. Connecting the two fuel rails or having two fuel lines supplying fuel just increases the cost by having to buy more hose and AN fittings.
Well my procrastination paid off. Ron at Whoosh started selling the Peron four port system. Hot Dam, that's the one I want. I was emailing Peron directly getting more information about their system and liked the responses that I was getting.
The bare bones Peron kit is just the fuel spacer/rail, attach bolts, alternator spacer, gasket and the fuel fittings with fuel line. I never saw a photo of the complete hardware package, so I was under the impression that the fuel line would be a braided line with AN-6 fittings. Well upon receiving the plumbing kit, I was surprised at that they used a plastic QD with a plastic hose. I imagine they went this way to keep the kit costs down.
The first photo shows what the kit, less injector and controller comes with. The second photo shows the things you need to get to complete the kit. I was going to mount the controller by the stock horn area, under the R/H headlight assembly. So, I decided that to protect the controller from the elements, I was going to encase it in a waterproof box. Well the useable area is not big enough to mount the box properly and I'm going to mount the controller under the drivers seat. Earlier I made a comment on the Peron supplied fuel line. I decided to go with PTFE lined stainless steel braided line with black nylon covering and -6AN straight fittings instead of the line from Peron.
Injectors are a EV14 compact with split spray pattern, 52lbs flow rate. Part number for the injectors is Bosch 0280158117. Amazon sells them for $40.00 each. Since I live in California, Amazon won't sell them to me, so I had to pay a bit more for mine.
The controller is a SplitSecond AIC1-V4H w/4-Channel Tach. MSRP is $299.00 plus shipping, but Edge Autosport sells it for $295.00 with free shipping.
The alternator has to move fwd a bit and found out that the stock belt really puts extra tension on the tensioner pulley after the installation of the spacer. To fix this, I went with a one size larger belt, GATES K060615. Amazon sells the belt for $15.95
For all of you outside of California and decide to use the Peron supplied fuel line. Cost is $1254.00. That is roughly $200.00 cheaper than the Stratified system and not having to deal with the alternator mount issue. If you live in California and like I mentioned earlier, Amazon will not ship the injectors to CA residents and price of the injectors are $55.00 ea on up. I got mine from Fuel injector Connection for $55.00 ea. Going with a different fuel line will increase the price by $50.00 or so dollars and the Gates belt adds $15.95.
I was planning to install the system during my vacation a week or so ago, but life gets in the way and took up all the spare time before I had to return to work. I will be installing it in the next few weeks, during my days off. I will post photos of the installation when it goes in.
