Hello, I saw a video of ifusion method, but with a different variation, that don0t use a tube to introduce resin, only use one tube to extract the air and excess of resin. 
The resin is putting inside mould before baging. Do you know this method? Is better than normal method? 
 
I think your confusing vacuum bagging with infusion. They are two different things.
Wet layup is messy and you have to be time sensitive. Infusion allows you all the time in the world to lay things up dry. You can leave the stack in vacuum for a long time to debulk before you introduce the resin.
 
In my opinion the best is:
 
1st Prepreg autoclave
2nd Vacuum Infusion
3rd Wet layup vacuum bagged
4th Straight wet layup 
 
Best resin:
 
1st Epoxy                  Note: in all 3 cases you must use resin designed for infusion. (ask me how I know?)
2nd Vinylester
3rd Polyester
