Have read that it is somewhat a self learning system. Also what type of alternator do you have? Do you have a recovery tank for your radiator?

Sorry for all the questions but your setup looks really good and I'm sure a better running machine. I really need to do some upgrading.
The 725 will bolt up to the Performer,RPM or Victor.
Summit shows the Demon 725 is 3.25" tall.

FiTech lists the 600Hp 3-9/16" tall

If I were to swap the intake out I'd go for the RPM air gap. The Victor is advertised to run in the 5-9k rpm range. I'm putt-putting around mostly and hit 6k once in a blue moon. This video is pretty informative.

The FiTech is great, I use the Fuel command center (Bottom right of the lower pic) instead of going with the external high press pump (gets hot) or in-tank pump. The FCC has internal floats and pump to boost it to 60psi out.
It runs better and better each drive. $995 for the 600hp unit, $395 for the FCC, and approx $100 in sleeving, Adel clamps, fuel lines, push-loc fittings in s/steel to match my existing lines. (comes with Black fittings, hoses, filter.)
Vintage Motorsports have been using FiTech it quite a bit now on their BDRs.

Alternator is a Bosch unit PN AL7522N

BTW there is a $100 rebate on the 600HP system again. Took me approx 4 weeks to get the rebate back, not bad actually.

PS> No overflow catch can.
