CIS injection (more effective mixture control than D-Jet) is good for 
at least 10% more hp and 15% better fuel milage on the same engine as a 
carb.  Unless you have a fairly esoteric manifold system (hard to put 
under a hood), carbs provide pretty poor atomization, and suffer badly 
from lousy fuel distribution at low throttle openings.  Even D-jet 
turned the type 11 and type III VWs into very reliable, efficient cars 
from cranky trouble causers -- it was almost impossible to keep the 
twin carbs balanced on that flat four.
