Another "Is Fuel Injection a Worthwhile Upgrade?" Question
I was trying to explain the basic theory of EFI to a carb guy. Your higher level of understanding of tuning is beyond what a carb to EFI curious guy may know off the bat. Most of your response is the programming aspect of a great tune, necessary on our MS's...I'm talking about systems that just bolt on, have limited user adjustablilty (for safety and operation) and are expected to work better than a Holley 750, without a laptop on the passenger seat and in depth knowledge of Alpha-n or enrichment tables. Self tuning systems should work themselves out in the time it takes a cam to break in. Your quote included "any good EFI system isnt a 1980's TBI" yet most of the bolt ons are in fact ancient TBI with all the shortcomings of that wet system...fuel puddling, cold intakes, cylinder balance, etc. Go MPFI or dont go at all would be my recommendation.
