Default Re: Dommination of FI cars.

The booster venturi is NOT the same as an injector. Nor is the venturi itself. Changing a fuel injector is the same as changing a jet. A fuel injector DOES NOT change airflow (not by itself, unless it protrudes into the air stream, and most do not). Changing a booster venturi will change AIR FLOW, as well as changing HOW fuel flows. The reason you are not allowed to change the booster venturi is because in many cases you can change to a booster venturi that will allow you to flow more air. The amount of misinformation and disinformation disseminated by people who have no idea what they're talking about is amazing.

Fuel injected cars (SOME of them anyway) will have an advantage, at least to begin with. The way to fix that would be to force them to trigger a review with the AHFS. If you take your carbureted car and go home and whimper, it'll never change. If you go race them and make them show their hand, it might just change.
