Default so confused on EFI and CARB

So basically is a carb better then EFI. I always thought that EFI was the best way to go for fuel effecieny, but some of these post's i've read lately say a carb tuned good can out do ehm. I guess EFI is just easier to tune and such, some insight would help me out

If you buy a quality carb (see: high dollar) then yea, it can be. Also, if you're really good at tuning carbs, because the change in temperature, barometric pressure and humidity can throw them off. That's what makes EFI so nice. If you got your car dyno tuned, you'd be quite happy with the results (mind you, with a fully stock car that'd be a waste of money).
