I never said carbs were superior...just the first line of my post...cheaper and easier to make more power. I also said FI was better for the street. Of course if you add all kinds of sensors, computer software, etc, its going to run better with more parameters and input to base it off of, I was just trying to say its less work and money to make more power on a v8(notably a chevy, not saying a toyota v8). When i built my 305 monte carlo a few years ago, I just put on a 1975 ish holley 600 cfm, very very used. The way it sat it ran perfect on that motor, not to rich or lean, and made tons of power. The fuel economy of course sucked, but it was liveable. it was about 14-16 mpg average. When i get my license and had that car gas was also 1.30 a gallon so i honestly didnt care..20$ got me a full tank.
