You find dozens (if not hundreds) of people using the various 8 stack systems, with varying degrees of success.

Any individual runner intake system is going to be inherently more complicated than anything with a common plenum. They can be made to work, and work very well. But you have to spend the time and learn how to do that.

For people who have never worked on them, and performance EFI system is quite complicated. The sales brochure will tell you that's the system is completely self tuning. They never are. Some are better than others. And the ECU will tune itself fairly close. But you have to do the final tuning yourself.

I think it's great, and I really like mine. But it's not for everyone.
