New EFI controller

[Duncan Miller]

'id like to see a inexpensive PC programmable  EFI ecu that  would allow me to
replace emission carbs on vehicles made from 1970 to 1980 for the purpose of
lowering maintenance, improving fuel consumption, lowering emissions, and small
increase in hp. under $500.00
