Technical Question:
Stock Motor Class: 2008 year limit
Which would be better, Injected stock motor on gas or Carb motor on alcohol?
These are our options
Please explain why.
Thanks for your help

I think we do have a nice 2000 r6 sitting around somewhere.

Stick with injection if you can. So much better in so many ways.

Depends what comes with your engine, if its tuned up to any degree then the standard injection will not work. Also depends how deep your pocket is, personally I would always stay with injection, talk to these guys for best info...........
