i prefer to work with EFI, but, carb has much more power potential.

Stay EFI if it already is.

i disagree, carb is easier but EFI has better precise tuning and way more power potential. I would go EFI if you want more accurate fuel delivery.

Ha ha ha stick to the nitrous there N8. He said street racing not 8 second 1/4 mile. For your average car running 12's or 13's fuel injected is the way to go. It is wayyy more efficient and your Gas tank will thank you. Not to mention when you go up in elevation you dont have to get out and adjust or jet your carb.

What kinda car you going to run Street? Daily Driver?
Carb can be faster, but EFI is more reliable from what i've been told.....

'Fraid not. In an N/A application, you will generally always make more power with a well set up carb. That being said, I would still keep the EFI if it is intact because of the better drivability regardless of temperature or elevation.
