Ok, I really wasn't going to get into this as this is a old debate that is never answered to either sides satisfaction.

A few things to consider - Cost and availability.

Firstly you do need to decide what you want out of your car/engine and what you are prepared to spend.

A well set up set of Carbies will provide excellent power delivery and can quite easily provide a smooth running bottom end. It is all in managing the entire Carby set up from air speed to choke size, manifolds the whole package.

For an EFI set up to compare to Carbies in the top end performance side of things you need to have individual throttle bodies with well set up manifolding and of course a GOOD programable efi Computer.

Compare the cost on both and you will deffinatly be infront with the carby setup.

Now if you can actuially afford the leter mentioned EFI set up then yes thatwould be my choice ! An electronic carby Wink

A cheaper EFI set up will be more restrictive than a basic carby set up. Stock intake manifolds are designed to flow for a standard engine NOT a modified one. Factory runners are generally resticive and flow poorly. Stock Throttle bodies also have a limit (Altho this is generally alot higher than the rest of the manifold)

Facts are a stock 4AGE EFI system is shit for a performance engine and so if your serious about your performnce its need to be changed. Which direction you go is up to you.
