Hey mate if you are ging to rebuild your 2tg and are using standard injection there are a lot of people that will agree it is not really worth it ($$ bang for bucks) compared to the twin carbs. I like injection, but my frineds have complained about the performance it provides, sure the car starts easier, and if you are going to force feed it its a must, but in standard form it is a bit lame.
The carbs sound nice, cheap (roughly $300 with manifold and linkages, sure they go out of tune a bit but are hell cheap compared to efi setup that will coist about $150-200 for the injection, $50 for AFM, $100 for efi fuel pump, $and and anywhere from $250-500 for a ECU (fuel only).
Speak to Rob (Inferno), he has the standard injection with the standatd ECU, and he is running the carb setup now so you can ask him for a comparison. Hope this is of some use, catchya, Pete.

yep well said pete.
toyota made the EFI for a 2T-GEU VERY simple, eg fuel only and running off a couple of sensors (mainly AFM and thermo). EFI on a 2TG feels like driving a 'magna' compared to a the untamed feel of carbies on a 2TG (you never know when they are gunna stop bogging down and kick in).
Aftermarket computers will definately give you more power, but they are costly, and chances are you will have to upgrade the TPS and add a MAP sensor, maybe oxygen sensor and possibly upgrade the throttle body, aswell as injectors etc.
I have a slightly worked 2TG (#222head; not the stock 2TGEU) ATM, when i had efi on it I knew the engine had way more power, and tried little tricks to suck more fuel out of the EFI but carbies undoubtively gave me more power. saying that i'm thinking of changing back to EFI now because it's like a 'thrash limiter' for me
I guess if you've already got half the gear then it ain't worth selling up for carbies, but don't be disappointed with EFI on your rebuilt 2TGEU, unless you go aftermarket.
goodluck, hope it works out for ya in the end.

thanks for the kind words, its not going to a standard rebuilt, i wanna put some rally cams in it get it ported and polished and fully balanced. i dont want a over the top amounts of power, i just wanna have a good engine, that looks clean in the engine bay.
THANKS

ok, but the port, polish and cams won't give you any extra power with the stock computer, but you could do what i'm thinking of and looking into wiring up bigger injectors using external resistors etc to get more fuel. i still don't think the cams will work 100% with this setup.
