EFI might be a hell of a lot more to upgrade but it's better in the long run without having to deal with tuning a carb. plus it's more efficient and such.

The EFI has more benefits (performance & driveablitity) but it will cost you more. Thats why I'm carbing my motor. I dont have a dime to waist. I guess if you have the extra cash for injectors, manifold, fuel pump, etc. etc. than go for EFI
