I believe I stated that I felt the Hyperspark had more to do with my improvement than the injection did. I wasnt trying to start a manhood measuring contest between carbs and EFI. I was just happy I picked up some time over my previous bests at the same track. I went in fully expecting basically identical numbers, so I was surprised when it went faster.
I have nothing bad to say about my Q jet, other than it was pain to get enough fuel to it. Once I switched to an intank fuel pump it was fine. Ive seen all the same dyno comparisons that show no real gain. The one thing I would say is that I do think its possible that the Terminator doing math for you might be better at compensating for the environment than a carb is. So it might before better under less than ideal circumstances like I had on Saturday. The throttle body is slightly taller, so maybe there is a touch more venturi effect going down the holes.
