EFI musings

[jengel at FastLane.NET]

EFI doesn't require the pressure drop across a venturi that a carb 
does.  If it is set up for power (as apposed to emissions, cost or 
whatever) the reduced pressure drop (generally 1 - 3" Hg) gives 
better VE.

Other that power, EFI is more adjustable i.e. mountains; the "warmup" 
time is shorter and the drivability is generally better (remember 
turning on the A/C in a car with a small engine?  Nowadays it still 
moves like a slug, but the idle quality and drivability are better).

Not to mention turbo applications. . .
