Also remember that if you go efi.. every wothwhile mod afterwards will require a lenghty time with the tuners to map it up again.. I think saturday highlighted that so many folks fuelings were completely off, however everysingle one of them had either, just hit and hoped with a odd set of jets and boost, or gave it somebody else to setup and trusted that they have it right(and the dyno showed otherwise). My advise would be to get an lm1, sit down and study the afrs and what they mean and how the diffrent jets work and at what stage they do there bit, and do it yourself.
What silly times was tommyB running ?, he was on a carb , think he'd of died at the sight of 2k efi setups. Push the limits of the carb first, then if you still feel the need for power maybe fork out the silly wedge for efi, but personally im against it in most cases.
