I'd like to know the pros and cons of both the carb and efi setup. Which would be better for a street/strip car that will be most likely daily driven. I heard that it is more expensive to go the efi route but how much more does it cost over a carb. Also would the conversion from efi to carb be hard to do. I want to run somewhere in the 11's. I want 450-500hp with a 125 shot of Nitrous Oxide so the N/A total comes out to about 350hp or so. How much is it easier to tune a carb over an efi system with nitrous oxide. Also, with my requirements in mind can you show me how much it would cost with the carb setup and then the efi setup. Thanks again in advance!!!
