but i bet his mpg was amazing using that two injector setup!
Not sure how to effectively set up a bench test considering it wouldn't be something you could be able to see with the naked eye... or at least, you shouldn't be able to see it.

the main point between that injector set up was to be able to turn one set off when it wasn't needed. forcing it to run more lean than the ecu would want to go.
it was a really interesting concept. Run as lean as possible, but go slow. and then flip a switch, double the fuel, double the power, when it is needed.
He also ran a water mist injection system to keep temps under control.

You'll have tons of info to be searching for on this topic. Be honest, wasn't this a rehtorical question...you didn't really expect and answer did you? Hence, you forgot you had posted it. LoL.
lol
you know me too well.
i was actually hoping for some of the tuners/more experienced than myself to chime in.
But I know many of them don't frequent the forums much any more.

it has been interesting doing the research into this. Lots of conflicting info. Hoping some of the engineering students at FSU can produce some decent info.
