At the end of the day, people work to budgets, or try and do things a certain way just for a bit of fun or as an experiment. NA tuning is really quite poor from a VFM point of view in most cases, be it carbs or TBs, but if they owner has a bit of fun, and gets what they want from it, then it's all good
Yes of course there some comprimises, but a fully programmable efi turbo set-up is really not very comparrable with a pair of webbers, and tbh they probably cost similar money. Try getting your car through a cat mot with webbers on
