Car: Yes
Engine: Usually
Transmission: Sometimes
Axle/Gears: Behind me somewhere
There are very few cams you could pick that would be any more EFI-hostile than that one, at its level of performance; or looked at from the flip side, very few that would perform any more poorly at the same level of tuning difficulty.

It's definitely a contenda for a last-place award.
