holley sniper question

Post by maca »

Hey all
I am currently running a Fitech throttle body injection. Its the 8 injector one that supports 1200hp.
I am looking at getting another one but thought I would check out the holley sniper version which looks exactly the same. They also claim to have a 8 injector version but when I search the internet all I can find is the 4 injector 600hp version for sale. Anyone know where I can find the 1200hp version or is it not out yet.
Cheers Greg

BTW, I do not think the Sniper is exactly the same. Very similar, but some differences in the air horn area on the 4 injector version.

Does the Sniper allow laptop tuning? That'd be worth the extra couple of hundred bucks for me with the FITech upgrade. The programmers just don't have enough control for me

Here is my question?

Is the FiTech 1200HP 8 injector unit you are running a two separate 4 port throttle bodies each with 4 injectors?

My reason for asking is if this is a normally aspirated engine, the largest single throttle body they appear to offer is only about 850 cfm and you can't make 1200HP with 850 cfm normally aspirated!

Is FiTech telling you this, because if they are I need to learn their magic science!

The 1200hp is for boosted applications - there are 8 80 lb/hr injectors. All systems can be tuned by laptop - the software is included on the handheld memory card of most systems (the street and mean street don't include it).
