they are better than injection systems because you can tune them more, injection systems are much better for mpg and reliability and emissions, weber just throw s**t loads of fuel in

yeah your right enough mate, theh only time they are better is when you have a kit car or simalar and cant have the wiring ecu set up, or if you cant chip/remap an ecu to get the bhp , so i would think its rare now that ant one would use them but you can get some wicked performance out of a set of twin 45's and they sound great. it all depends what you want then for i supose
