isnt mega squirt batch fire injection? i.e. it fires 2 injectors at once and just pools the fuel behind the non-firing cylinders valves until they open?

 

Oh no not the whole sequential vs. batch argument again.

 

Poolling fuel on the backsides of hot intake valves? Isn't that high-dollar Porsche technology, where they use raw fuel to cool the intake valves between intake events? If you can cool the intake valve by ~60 deg F it's the same as 2 points of octane.

Score another point for MS!!!11

heh...

 

i just figured that if it was batch fire injection that it would have the same performance as a DPI setup

 

If you mean stock Honda DPI, no. If you mean some of the aftermarket throttle body injection setups used on built all to hell domestics that are faster than your Honduh will ever be - sure, why not?

Batch fire just means your idle emissions blow goat ****. Oh, dear, not my idle emissions. What will I ever do? *sob* DAMN YOU MEGASQUIRT FOR RUINING THE ENVIRONMENT

 

I thought that you wanted fuel to be in a vapor from to make the best power. If its pooling on the valve then wouldnt it just run over the intake valve and into the cc defeating the purpose of making it a vapor in the first place?

 

Its not really in there long enough to make a difference. Sequential only really matters for low rpm emissions. And alot of cars that are sequential start batch firing above a certain rpm anyways......Like the NSX.

 

um you do know you can set it up to not be batched injection.

 

The current MS only does batch. I Think the ultramegasquirt which is gonna come out soon will be able to do sequential though.

 

I could probably do so, but you'd have to give me a reason why I should care to. For the life of me, I cannot see a reason to. That's the sort of semantic level we're operating on here...
