Its def possible to make it run cleaner, but with all the electronic wizzardry with laptops and everything else, I mean I would think its like "set it and forget it"

I had a few carbed cars and wasnt a fan of tuning for different seasons. I guess thats why everyone has their own car, to do what they please.

Wut?

Only time I would ever pull EFI off and go carb is if I was building a serious nitrous combination for the simple fact it will basically be wide open throttle all the time. An EFI car makes more low end power and mid range power due to proper fuel air atomization. All a carburetor is is a controlled dump of fuel. If the carburetor was such a cleaner running route , every car on the current new market would still be equipped with one.
