Hi Bob,

Long time since we spoke last, glad to see you're still here.  I'm working on
a TR6 engine, and I am aware that FI by itself isn't really a performance
boost by itself.  I'm wanting to use the FI/EDIS setup to maximize the
potential of the other changes I'll be making.

Glad you mentioned Rick Patton's setup, I had forgotten about it. I'll look
into it.  Are there any other setups out there to compare to?

Thanks,
Raymond
