What is FI?

Hi I'm new here. I've been reading the forum and this place has answered a lot of my questions, but what is FI? What does it stand for?

Forced Induction mostly on these forums. Like turbo- or supercharging.

It can also mean Fuel Injection, as it does in PGM-FI.

Thanks for the information. I didn't know what it was so I asked. Is that so wrong? Unless you had that information in your head when you were born you had to ask someone that question once. No need to be an A$$HOLE!

Careful there, PA (which stands for Pain in the Ass or Pure Adrenaline, whichever you prefer to call him ) was just kidding with his response.

Can't you tell we're just a big family here?

It does mean Forced Induction.

If it was a joke, then I am sorry for my response. I'm just trying to learn a little more about my car since I just bought it.

I fucking hate Pure Adrenaline. I've yet to see him give one good piece of technical advice.
