Default Carb intake with injectors and TB?

Whats the deal with people using the carb intake with fuel injection? Is there more power available with this set up? I seem to be missing the advantages, please clarify for me.

i do believe with high rpms and a good combo the carb intake should yeild u a tad more hp -from 10-25 hp-it wont be a big gain of 50-100 hp if thats what u are looking for-

i went this option for a couple of reasons-looks apart-looks neat-and would make more power as their is no good intakes for the l92 yet-engine builder and i are going to turn it up a bit 7500-8000 in a soild combo

others will know a bit more then me-i have read on here the vic jnr needs a bit of love to get going-and the gmpp one is pretty spot on-

also the cost is not that much-will be $1000-1200.00 cheaper then a sheetmetal-
