A big highlight to mention from this interview and the Fueltech as a company is the customer support. This guys will help you tirelessly it's does not matter where your at or what day and time it's. if you are at the track and they see you have their ECU they will just go to you and help you simple as that, I am a witness to this just mentioned.
Every brazilian that likes cars has Airton Senna as an icon. I my self woke up many times in the middle of the night to watch him race. Anderson and luis are true car guys that build software to have fun.
Awesome interview /chat with Luis love his work watching from Australia big thumbs up guys 👍...Thinking seriously about on my LS1 Turbo combo and updating to a fueltech standalone setup and removing the factory GM/Holden ECU deal...But yeah keep up the great work guys 👌, PS I can understand Luis 😆
@@4familyman I really hope so. They really need knock control and improve the traction control side of it if they want to be relevant in Time Attack or Wheel to Wheel racing.
@@geogmz8277I don't know where you got that info from but there's nothing we are missing out on that anyone else has that's important for road racing... Never have I felt like I needed anything additional than I already have... Quite a few people have actually switched to fueltech because they don't like how haltech is laid out... And when there's problems getting help is 10 times harder than with fueltech.. I was extremely happy after switching
Politics killed sport compact NHRA but import drag racing promoters don’t want to mixed events with different tracks. We need a series at different tracks!
When yiu gonna have or are you ever gonna hace an interview with RocNYC you went threw alot of NYs car dudes interviewing them but No RocNyC i wouldnt have even herd or seen the guys if it wasnt for him i stunbled across his channrl and just never stopped watching hes right in the middle with all the drivers all the peopl around that dude is in the know. You should for sure interview him it would be cool to know more of his story im sure alot of ppl would watch too hes growin.
Not to compare but does fuel tech have anything "plug and play" for the LS platform. Harness, screen, etc. Thank you for a great interview. This content is amazing. Ahmad
I've never heard FT address why they avoid offering knock control. Is it the cost of development or do they think it's an inconsistent crutch that users shouldn't rely on?
I run fueltech on my car that makes 24mpg on pump e85 and is daily driven automatic. I run turbo and nitrous on it but literally every body can drive it definitely a low horse power car that still has vvti electronic throttle body and all its factory components. Anybody can drive this car. I endorse fueltech on that one
he didn’t understand when you said about “tuners saying that is a joke” i got you Tukes, i am a Brazilian guy living in australia mechanic in performace shop and thats the thing that i most listen about fueltech, talking to tuners and performance guys that deal with australian ecu’s since forever they dont have open mind to new thing! here they always say, “fueltech is a new microtech, came strong but go way quick also”
Australia is the hometown of haltech, Motec, EMtron and New Zeland is house of Link, so can you imagine how hard is talk about FT here! but when Street out Law came to race against Australians all cars with fueltech didn’t loose one race! Anderson Dick say this one time, when they try get in America they listen from guy that “ecu has to be a box underneath the dash and separate screen” performance world is super conservative they dont open mind to a new think.
I have a FT550. Stock turbo bridge port FC Rx7 Time attack car. It's awesome, but if you need to use CAN with other products like AIM Sports, it's not friendly since the CANBUS is locked. Love it though, Hopefully they bring a 700 style model that is a few grand cheaper.
Good luck trying to take your car to Maxxecu hub dyno and have their engineers tune your car. Or calling them in the middle of the night from a race track to help you.
@@tetracontrol i live in belgium so i dont think that i can take my car anyway to their dyno and before replying that think a little like i said cool product but expsensive imo, i use other exspensive brands also because of certain reasons. but at maxxecu they also have a dyno they located in sweden so for people around them its also availble for help. and their respnse is also verry good. i follem them also because they do cool stuf but i can have an opinion right :)
@@FourStrokesPerformancepeople that know will always say: best ECU is the one you have a good tuner for it, unless you are a enthusiast and wants to learn by yourself. Talk with your tuner and work with what he is comfortable with.
This is ongoing trend / evolution for modern standalones... Makes sense given the gauge clusters of OEM's are all digital these days, so why have a headless system when you can kill two birds with one stone.
@ I also noticed he said it’s compatible with Mac. Does he mean it can be tuned with a MacBook? If so that is something I have not seen with any other platform.
@frosty6.2ls I wonder if they simply changed from having an installable software like legacy platforms, to a web browser based UI like alot of other devices have (router's, printers, etc) making it OS independent. Smartphone apps in many cases might appear as an installable, but can be a a glorified browser in cases where its based on progressive web applications, but I don't own one and so it's just an assumption.
FuelTech has done this for years. I run FT550 on a couple of cars. Badass ecu and ends up being cost effective since screen is built in. Simplifies also.
Imagine being a backyard TH-cam channel and building your own k-series mr2 just so happens that you're on the fueltech Dino and you make 1500 hp and get a compliment from one of the most prestigious people in the industry as a badass engine builder😂😂
It's the first ECU from the new platform. I think they will make a cheaper version later (700 has a lot more than someone needs for a more casual racing or street car), but I think it's something for 1 to 3 years ahead maybe.
@ let’s agree to disagree. They are known to have trigger issues. They don’t support engine triggers as well as other ecus. They can’t run their own injectors out of the box without external controllers where other ecus can. So they are far from perfect
@@350gtboi only the big ones with low impedance (520-1020 lb/h injectors), the smaller ones designed for road cars or cars with normal power don't need drivers (80-240 lb/h).
@@Rhd.RedTeg00thank you. I'm glad someone said it. Everyone wants to benefit off bringing it up be it clout, or wanting to feel important, or whatever. Wounds don't heal when you pick the scabs.
I upped these two comments for the based. Can't watch any car video without them bringing it up 7000 times. I even think people be posting them in baking videos to. The most irrelevant videos and they be shouting 1stock.
Tukes, It was our pleasure having you here at our HQ! Thanks for coming by and chatting with us! We hope to see you running FuelTech soon! 😎
Thank you so much for your time and hospitality! Had a great time at the facility! 🙌🙏
@@FuelTechUSA you guys better be hooking Tukes up with at least an FT550!
After listening to this, I can't wait to run Fuel Tech in both the Scion and the GSX-R!
@FuelTechUSA What's the highest power figures have you guys seen on your dyno from a straight 6 like a 2jz ??

Loved how he never bad mouthed another company and how humble and down to earth this interview was. Might be my favorite one yet!!

By far one of the best interviews!
Tukes, thank you for the interview; Luis, you are the real deal, kudos to you!
Insanely inspirational with the back story & just over all explaining of things, was very understandable & educational. Awesome video tukes!

This is a solid interview. Can tell you are slowly getting better and better at this podcast stuff
Orgulho do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
I was so busy yesterday that I almost missed this one! I hear you too
Proud to have fueltech to power my car. But he’s right. It doesn’t guarantee anything

Ya need to get La natty racing on you podcast if you want to be a top podcaster. They been doing their thing your years.
You mean Abraham from Rated R. He’s been doing his thing for years.
Fueltech is great for Drag Racing, I've found that Haltech and Link ECU have more feature for someone who wants to do road course racing.
Hence, the new ft700 which will have more customization than the other units
@@4familyman I really hope so.
They really need knock control and improve the traction control side of it if they want to be relevant in Time Attack or Wheel to Wheel racing.
did you comment without watch the podcast, right?!

Seems like such a cool company. Curious if there’s any EVO 8/9 builds running their new ECU?
Biggest question, can it run direct injection or control Things like VVTi , Vanos or VW engine lift control.
Good luck getting support on ft
They literally have some of the best support out there. Try to get any support from Holley and get back to us.

I'm pretty sure all PLR engines will work with it
Will knock control ever come into the picture I?
What’s the price for a 450 fuel tech now?. I’m building a budget build.
They got Cletus. When he r runs his Camaro. There smart😊
I want fueltech whenever I finish my first turbo lt1
