    Fuel Injection..... Either will work fine but EFI is so much simpler to tune once you learn a couple of tables. On top of that you'll be able to read every sensor in the car with the touch of a button and know the actual A/F ratio...

    I have to disagree. Fuel injection relies on many more sensors that can go bad. I chased problems on my first car for a whole summer. Never did figure out what was causing my issue. I went to carb and haven't had an issue tuning it since. I know my actual A/F ratio and if the car does act up I only have a couple of things to look for. I didn't like the idea of taking the car to get tuned everytime I made an upgrade or changed the boost level.
    I would go with whatever system you are more familiar with. I have alot more experience with a carb so that's why I prefer it.

    YEP the same goes with EFI tuners,, Go to the people that know your ECU !!!
    If you know CARB OR algorithms go for it !!!
