Different strokes for different folks. These "arguements" are for show and for discussion. When ever 2 guys get together there will always be discussions of who's is faster, better looking, bigger etc: it's car talk. I for one always enjoy a good debate, even political, you share ideas, opinions and hopefully both will walk away with more knowledge than before entering the fray. I for one always learn something or at the minimum the urge to do more research. Then I do or beleive what I want.


One comment, in one of the post a person said all the emissions standards came out and then FI was born. FI has been around since the 50's and maybe earlier, the computer is what made FI work.

The Feb. 2009 Kit Car Builder magazine has an interesting article where the Dynatek FI is compared to carburation on the same motor; mileage increased from 12.66 to 19.02 and there was a 40hp gain throughout the rev range on the FI system. Good article both sides should review it.

I have a few question regarding the dynatek system vs true Weber carbs. There is no doubt about haveing the Weber carbs properly tuned is a true accomplishment. However, properly tuned can mean many things to alot of people. I have had my Weber carbs for sometime know and do wish sometimes that I have purchased the efi setup. But when you sart caomparing the dollar amount between the dynatek and Weber carb there is a huge difference.

Weber carbs = $2500
dynatek = $6000

We are here arguing if the efi will give you more HP compared to the carb setup and can not come to an agreement nor will dynatek comment if you will gain more power from there system.

If I were to use the dynatek system I would definitly through out the computer and use the Halteck system. This is just my opinion. However, I dont think you have that option.

The only down side I see to the Weber carbs besides the cost to properly tune them ( which I have managed to help someone tune their weber setup for approx. $ 100) is the fuel drip that happens after shutdown.

The Weber carbs are period correct and alot of fun to play with.

But bottom line, the dynatek system is for different people than the Weber carbs.

But the HP out come from the dynateck will definitly not justify the cost difference.

100 miles on mine.

I'm not really ready to give my complete opinion yet. We had problems getting the system tuned, and without 500 miles on the street I am not ready to really drive the car to see how it will perform.

Starts great, idles great, WOT on the dyno was great. But right now I feel that the choice of ECUs would be a factor (you can order the system with the FAST ECU, which i did not know when I ordered my system).

You can get more info on my build thread
