one, this isn't the o/t or racing stories area...
two, the cars with fuel injection have more power, but they are heavier... comes down to driver IMO
ah yes yes well performance section works im askin bout the performance right
ahhah he didn't mean racing, he means over all, i hate how carbs act all weird in different weather, but it is fun to play around with, but all in all, i'd go with an lxi coupe or hatch, light and puts out more horses.
3geez for life.
tunability/reliability of efi... i dont miss carbs at all.

I'd have to go with PGMFI over carbed.

PS. This thread does not belong in the performance section as mentioned. its in general or offtopic. Nothing useful about performance in this thread thats why.
Who cares who will win out of the box... I perfer carbs and have fun tuning them...
Shazam... the thread is moved.

yah carbs are fun to fittle with, all i would do with efi is short ram it, wouldn't dare touch that thing, might fuck it up

Both have potential for lotz more HP. I perfer Carb though, as FI has lotz more electrical crap to go wrong. I've driven both & still revert back to good old carb as, for me it's easier to tune it than sit there & diagnose a FI system.
some of the fastest draggers in the world are old school stangs on carb. but i guess some fuel injected ones car fast too. lol

i likie my carb, but with the emissions regs here i cant get the horse numbers i really want, so unless this recent talk in MO gets really serious and they repeal the emissions testing, i am gunna have to swap to EFI... but i would love to keep the carb for the effect of beating newer cars with the carburator!
I would go with EFI. Cold morning starts with carbs suck.
...so do electrical problems tho
i personally like to know that the problem is physical (ie not in a computer) that way i can find it and fix it, thats kinda why i like working on older cars more than new ones, i like when there are more hoses than wires...

Carbs suck i dont like em. I had to much probs with em. PGMFI is good u can do alot with it and make good hp. Carb and FI are good but i just prefer Fuel injected
200+ ALL MOTOR LS VTEC
Yeah but we are talking about Honda's here. it's been 16 years without a single Computer or EFI problem can you say the same about your carb ?. Any other car and I will have to agree with you but since this is a Honda and all ..
I'd much rather have an EFI.
