adapted to mechanical throttle linkage if an aftermarket OEM-type
electronic-fuel-injection system is used. Larger fuel injectors
permitted, provided no modification or redrilling of manifolds is
performed. Electronic fuel injection must be closed, OEM-type
system
; i.e., may monitor only engine functions. Monitoring of
vehicle performance criteria, wheel speed, driveshaft speed,
vehicle acceleration, etc. by fuel-injection system prohibited. All
aftermarket OEM-type electronic fuel injection must be NHRAaccepted. A current list of NHRA-accepted electronic-fuel-injection
systems is available on NHRARacer.com. Open-loop systems
permitted on production vehicles as equipped with OEM electronic
fuel injection.
See General Regulations 9:1.


not saying it could be checked very easily but 99% of you are illegal running in open loop..

Some stock systems run in open loop. Till certain parameters are met. The turbododges are in open loop at wide open throttle.
We are not illegal. I had went through an NHRA electronics teardown. And they had asked it I running open loop.
