On a well-maintained stock engine K-Jet can work just fine.
Beyond that...ugh.
It's bulky. The air meter is a significant restriction to airflow. Many parts are grossly expensive. Modifying it to accommodate non-stock engine combinations is at best an arcane and spectacularly expensive exercise.
EFI is cheap, tuning techniques are far more widely known, and it's far more easily adapted to non-stock configurations.
