What precisely is an aftermarket injection system supposed to do that the factory engineered system does not accomplish?

I can see the point if using an odd-ball engine (Like a Volvo "modular" inline),
or using forced induction on a factory V6 engine....

I could see it being nice for EFI retrofit into a vehicle that doesn't have room for some of the bulkier wiring, but other than that, no, not that cool.

Clean your room before you criticise the world.
Well thought it was cool from a forced induction stand point

Tweecer with a driveway tune for your boosted applications is Cool. Less expensive, choices/options, you can tune the tranny too, and can make changes if you add more power later. You can by a chip for your application as low as $275 or get a tuner for $450 with data logging capability to fine tune.

I looked into that many years ago...it was too expensive back then...would have been OK with the carb that I had originally but I managed to keep the carburetor by getting a better intake and carb combo...

They also have, for those interested, a spark system that allows you to run a carburetor on a newer fuel injection system...

Why you would want to do that I have no idea...other than those EMP's that Russia is going to blast us with...but that will still need a computer...

I say we all outflank them and switch to carburetors now so we can still roam around and shoot zombies from our trucks...

Unless the Zombies get together again and start making records again...they were good

The Zombies were great. I also liked Every Mother's Son. One song: Come On Down To My Boat. That song and the group played on an episode of The Man From Uncle back in 1967 I think. It was season four.
