have u ever heard of harold martin....he's right over in novi. pretty sure he's running 800 inch bigblocks with 4 dry kits with a custom electronic engine managment system. going 6.0 @ 230+mph. pretty sure that in the ballpark of the fastes in the world. man i got nothing against u...i'm just tryin to point out some facts here......i mean wouldn't u rather spend a lil more money on a system that can have way more control over an engine...i mean some people spend thousand of dallars on their engines. so when they are 5 engines deep because they can't get the intake right and their burning up pistons maybe the efi system that can add or subtract fuel per cyclinder isn't such a bad idea.....

harold martin is the only person there is going fast with fuel injection. there are a few faster cars than him with carb

right on...well your right if somone doesn't know much about electronic systems then yea it can get confusing and can fuck shit up real quick. yea i know it does cost about 500 for a retune but assuming can do it by one self then a retune is nothing but cruisin around a lil bit......i like cruisin and i don't even have to pop the hood. i guess i like to drive more than work on the car... lol.....

Agreed. But I also dont ever pop my hood for anything. Only if im going to the track or elsewhere to race. Thats it.

Shit I have been watching Harold running the ADRL deal that guy cant even get down the track anymore, bad example there use Billy Glidden as a role model

billy glidden uses a carb right? and billy is the man, im guessing if the fuel injection was so much better he would be all about it.

i agree there are a few cars faster than him....but i am not comparing whos car is faster....there is more to how fast a car is than just how the engine runs and i know that u know that. i am simply comparing a carburator to an efi system. completely leaving the vehicle out of it. and bottom line is that there is a lot more control with and electronic engine managment system.....my car is not very fast....i do enjoy drag racing but like u said i'm a broke bitch...so i'd rather keep my car to a form of i can get decent gas milage make some good power and be able to go wherever i may feel like.

i'm not saying that efi is ganna be better in billy gliddens situation but why don't u ask him if he has ever tried it. prolly hasn't so for anyone to say that it is or isn't better is just bein sarcastic.

but what can you do with your car that i cant with a carb car? i put jets in it just like you have too, you pull timing wtih a computer i pull it with a ign box. i spend 800 on a carb and nitrous kit, you spend 1000s on fuel injectors, mass air metes, throttle bodies, fuel management system, and a dry nitrous kit you can only blow 180hp through. and tuning time to get it right. i can put a tune in a carb car and almost know it will be right the first pass. and still drive it everywhere. it might not get good gas mileage but nitrous is only used a 1/4mile at a time.

billy glidden will try it if he think it will work. he is the baddest man out there with that stuff, im sure if he thought it would make him go faster it would be on his car.

i by no mean disagree with what ur saying. what my car can do that yours can not is automatically make fuel changes and spark changes for temperature and elevation without popin the hood. i can make fuel changes in milliseconds per cylinder. i can run a closed loop set up with a wideband so maybe for some reason the fuel pressure drops oh shit now i'm lean so then it can add some fuel and take out some timing automatically. save my 20000 dallar engine. my system runs at 60psi so if i drop 1 psi chances r its not ganna go lean.....your 8-9 psi system u drop a half psi on a big nitrous kit and shit happends quick. i mean the list can go on and on.......i am not sayin that you can make an ungodly more amount of power with an efi system what i am stating is that they are more tunable more safe more controls.....
