Reply to "Switching from carbs to fuel injection"

I never considered how my system was going to look when I switched over to fuel injection. It came down to how it would make my car run, which after ten years of driving it I am totally satisfied with how well my car runs with it and the gas mileage is great for a 550 plus horsepower car. I can get 17 to 20 mpg on the highway and I doubt that any carb is going to do that for me. Cold starts are great and major changes in altitude don't matter.

For the most part, in 2023 all EFI systems provide similar performance and benefits.  There are some folks who prefer a throttle body that looks like a carburetor (ie. the Holley Terminator Stealth) so the car looks "original" while others may not be concerned about it at all.  Ultimately the same gains are there, it's just giving the owner what they want.
