Which is the better upgrade to go with? I’ve heard great things about both.

One way to look at it is, while EFI gives you a new reliable fuel delivery system, Stage II gives you a fresh engine with a little more performance.
Their prices say a lot... lol
Two different tools for two entirely different goals. EFI gives you a simplified and more reliable, modern fuel system. Stage 2 gives you a tiny amount of horsepower for an enormous price tag.
And enormous bragging rights at DCS.
"Oh I see you went with the LS4....cute. I got the Stage II which preserves the soul of a DeLorean rather than selling out and doing the car equivalent of leaving your wife and kids for the stripper you met on a business trip in Phoenix."

only true og k jet fans would understand
If you don't consider the cost, the Stage II will give you a bit more performance, an EFI conversion will give you (if it is done well) a more modern engine management system. The ultimate would, of course, be both but now you are talking real money. If I were to consider it, I would go first for the Stage II as the foundation for further improvements such as EFI and then maybe turbos. A lot depends on your finances and where you want to end up when you are done.
"a tiny amount of horsepower"
A 67hp improvement on a 130hp motor is a 51.5% increase. That, on a car that really seems to need it.
Regardless, this is kind of like asking if one should get new tires or repair a bad glove box latch.
