The Microfueler is a pretty interesting box, and can control one or two additional injectors. I believe it depends on the version of the MF box.
Anyways, I know someone who changed their MF to a "modern" system and the car did run even better, but no surprise, as the "brains" of the controller have gotten better. Like a Commodore 64 v. Macbook Pro. Anyways, the MF was simple and worked. But as agreed (I think), time marches on and even better auxiliary injector controllers exist.
Heck, I remember something for Turbo Buicks (parts released) in the 90s which was very crude, especially compared to the MF.

The required tune is arguably more important than the new hardware pieces bolted onto the engine.
