Sure you can go 10's on a Holley 750, just as you can go 10's with stock EFI. But when you go 8's, you're going to have a custom carb that's been gone through, and its going to be expensive. The same with an EFI setup. Its cheap to go fast with both systems and its expensive to go even faster with both systems.

Yeah, I saw that. I was reading through it quickly at work when I first posted that.
I think we can all agree that going fast costs money no matter how you choose to do it. Most people will gravitate to what they are most comfortable with. I'm with you Briane, I'd rather fire up the laptop and tune without getting dirty

Actually the AEM setup isn't all too expensive, I think it's like a grand and plugs into the factor wiring.Briane

I'm telling you man, put a Megasquirt on it. They're less than $200 and can do some trick shit. Nothing as trick as the AEM, but alot cheaper. If I were you I'd take the entire factory harness out and lay it in the garage. Then just wire up the MS with its own harness so its not hacked up.

Lol, in the end I think we were all saying about the same thing.
Megasquirt... that just doesnt sound right. Between that and PMS, I dont know which one sounds gayer to claim installed on your car.
"Yo, I got a megasquirt on my car" - "yeah, is that like a windshield washer or something?"
or
"I tune my car with my PMS" - "So, you get your wife to do it??"
