So basically I'm just curious here on who's opinion is what and why. I might have seen a similar post a while back but I don't remember for sure.
My personal opinion is carbs. I don't know what a new injector for a 914 is going for but generally speaking carb kits are cheaper than new injectors. Plus, I like trying to fine tune carbs- if one is set right the engine can be extremely efficient. My teener is set up for carbs and I plan to leave it that way. |

EFI for a daily driver because of its sealed fuel systems that don't suck up water like carbs do. Florida is especially bad for this problem with its constant high humidity.
E15 is coming and will make fuel problems worse for daily driver cars with carbs. I would like to move to EFI for my driver 914s and keep carbs on my 914 IMSA car in which I will run race fuel from sealed containers. Expensive, but you know what you are getting and it will not turn that many miles per year. John |
