    No carby have est units electronic spark timing whereas Efi electronic fuel injection both located in the same spot and have stickers with either est or efi on it . Est units are pretty crap i believe est unit use capacitators to provide spark depending on rpm input into them whereas efi are anolog computers and are not reprogramable. So i think techanically an est unit is not a computer and nowadays you wouldn't call an efi unit one either.
