Just put one my car. Have driven it over 1600 miles on power tour so far. No problems. Great piece. They are starting to ship some out now

What were you running before? What kind of improvement over your previous setup?

Better mileage a lot better throttle response. More consistent idle. Cold start you name it

Thinking about buying the terminator as well. Right now I have a holley 670 carb that came with the car and on the 454 engine with 427 heads it has some problem with running good in idle and will shutdown once in a while. Our standard pump gas in the Netherlands is 95-98 octane and that might be a bit of an issue as well and I am hoping that the EFI will take better care of it. Fuel economy is also pretty important since we pay megabucks for a gallon of fuel here (+/- $8.37/gal). It seems that the terminator is also the only EFI system I know of that can handle any additional boost and/or nitrous injection. Did look at the MSD kit as well and it looks very nice too but no boost capable. I am planning to add a turbocharger later on so an EFI that is capable of handling this is needed.

I am in the market of picking up the Holley terminator myself. I too looked at the FAST and MSD Atomic setups, but like the Holley best. Be aware that all of them are only rated for motors up to 600hp, after that the choice would be MPFI setups.

There's a rep from Holley that is on here , who can advise where to get it, his name is Derek.(Look under ENGINES in the forums and then under fuel injection)

I beg to differ many of the aftermarket FI systems CAN and DO handle boost including Megasquirt. Many people have made serious power with MS-III and it can datalog too. Beats spending some of the ludicrous amount most of these name brand systems seem to demand. Last time I had customer want one it was going to run him $4800 plus fuel system. MS-III got it done and he ran 30 psi boost and is very competitive.
