The ETEC's actually don't get as good of econonmy as the earlier RAM INJECTED engines did as they made some injector and cylinder head changes to quieten them down that cost some economy. The late FICHTS were actually about the best on fuel of any of the DFI engines, even right there with the OPTIMAX that now rules the roost of economy. ETEC is pretty much just a marketing name for the most part from what I found. BRP came up with a catchy name sort of like FICHT was before engines started blowing up.
