Re: To carb or not to carb....

i cant find out if its efi or mfi but it dosent realy matter because its a road course engine so the rpm go low and high, it might have a very simplified efi with miminal sensors. anyway this thread is about drag racing, and if you can prove to me that pro drag racing uses efi i'll shut up untill then admit ur an idiot

Re: To carb or not to carb....

the efi on indy cars probably adjust the air/fuel ratio in relation to rpm which is the exact same thing carbs do

Re: To carb or not to carb....

indy cars are purely electronic. everything done with those cars is done with a computer. there is no turning screws. prove it that carbs are superior than FI. post a tech article or something to prove your point. you have nothing to back it up.

Re: To carb or not to carb....

Jesus Christ how much more proof do you need??? There have been more than enough links posted with EFI drag cars that you won't likely see at the grocery store. NOW PLEASE SHUT THE ***** UP WE ALREADY KNOW YOU'RE AN IDIOT !

Re: To carb or not to carb....

and I also want to get this staright, I have nothing against efi, it provides the same amount of power that you can get with a carb in a street car and it has alot less emissions and gets alot better gas milege and it has almost no drivability problems, u don't have to warm the engine up before dropping it into gear

Re: To carb or not to carb....

cars that are street/strip are called sportsman drag cars and have carbs, mfi, and efi for obvious reasons because they are street cars that are suped up
