Hey guys,
I've looked over previous threads about this, and although helpful to a degree most of them are full of mixed opinions, and really not alot of facts. I've recently picked up a 87 TN GLX efi 5 speed manual as u's may have seen in the other topic, at the moment i'm currently running an 87 TN GLX carby 5 speed. Just looking for as many details as i can get about swapping the fuel injection over into my car.
Thanks.

the file attached is the comments i got from someone who has done the efi-carby conversion. wateva is written is in his words and through his know how. he did this write up cause i was going to do the conversion myself, but saw more disadvantages than advantages. (mainly cost being the disadvantage. was easier and cheaper to extract more power from the carb)
hope it helps.

Just read that and IMHO, you would be better to go for what TM-SE-RED has done and get a Webber carby put in, and work on tuning that, you will easily get more power from it, and it will cost less aswell.

yeah tels right. Given i had all the parts like i said in the first post, i just figured it would be more practical to look at that option first, i've considered the carby etc options, but at the moment efi is much more practical for money.

well, $100 for all the EFI parts is good enough. do the carby to efi conversion, im sure the file i attached would b helpful then. goodluck :D
