A thought just popped in my mind (uh oh)
A fuel injected engine has TONS of aftermarket parts...upper and lower intakes (pricey), fuel injectors, chips, MAFs, throttle bodys, etc. Each of these components are used to increase HP.
A carb engine has....an intake, fuel pump, and a carb. It doesnt have provisions for sensors, chips, MAFs, TBs, etc etc. Now, since the carb setup is so basic, shouldnt it make a lil more HP if setup properly? I mean, changing of electronic components on an EFI engine, how much of an effect does that really have as compared to a carb engine. Does anyone understand what im talking about?
