I like to compare carburator and FI as analog and digital systems.
like stereo systems.  The analog tubes have better qualites and so do
transistor logic.  carbs or much more responsive in many areas, but
FI has more control.  I work next to Billy Mitchel Hard Core Racing
who developed the injectorator for drag racing which combines the
properties of fuel injection and carburators, there was a recent 
magazine article on this.
