Almost everyone seems to be running FI kits on the stock 11:1 motors right now. So while it wouldn't necessarily be the optimal setup for FI, it should still be a feasible option.

I mean, you can. It's just if i am dropping that much building the motor...hell, even just that time...i am gonna build it up for my end goal.


V6 motors are inherently unbalanced.
