I'm running EFI and I'm an 05 and it's no problem at all. The cars runs just silky smooth and cranks out loads of torque that I used to not have with a flash since I was able to to tune for my particular mods--- in your case, you're going to need some custom tuning of some kind for sure... I love the flexability it gives me, but I like doing things myself, learning about the car, etc... The 05 cars are super easy to work with for this system

The old issue is with the idle pertaining to the DBW cars, although that has since been resolved. IT does, however, take some work from what I gather. I haven't done it, but I'm quite certain I could tune the idle on an 06 car. It's just a whole different critter than the 05, which is really easy to dial in...

In summary, especialy since you're working with a 05 car (so I can speak from actual experience), I think the EFI would be a no brainer

Best,

Phil
