There's quite a bit of benefits of electronic fuel injection over carburetor. EFI automatically adjusts the fuel/air ratio for you for optimum performance. What this means is that it eliminates the choke and will have no problem cold starting. It'll also be more fuel efficient and can adjust to your environment. With carbs, you are choosing a baseline fuel/air ratio that works best for the majority of your environmental settings (for me, 70's, not much humidity, sea level). When I go up to the mountains where it's thinner air and cooler, I lose performance because of carbs whereas EFI can adjust to the different environmental factors. Biggest thing for people though is easy starts and no more carb cleaning.
So, who will be the first test dummy?? Says it's coming out the 11th
