RodKnock,

My engine(s) has run a Haltech EFI since 1996 (thats right 1996). When I switched from the little 427 to the 540 a few years ago, I did have it retuned for WOT on the dyno (540 rwhp). I also did about 2 weeks of driveability tuning after that and it has run great again for about 4 years. As far as going thru the gears, I do it all the time and the car runs mid 10s on pump gas and street tires (does yours?). You have no business arguing that EFI doesn't work well. All the OEMS can produce 600HP and have great driveability with EFI. However there are a lot of folks living in the past that do not understand the systems well enough to tune them and won't take the time to think the systems through who will never figure them out. These folks are the complainers - if you don't understand, complain - forget learning something... Anyway, EFI works great if you understand it, in fact mine is really simple to make corrections with a laptop, you just have to be able to use the laptop
