so in another thread the topic came up (again) of fuel system limitations.. now talking about finding a solution to the HPFP issue once and for all, so injector limitation came up
with the specs available here: http://www.conti-online.com/www/down...cts_pdf_en.pdf (page 25)
Wanting to get info from people with more experience in the field
How much has already been achieved on them, especially E85 only? High RPM's too, not the usual HPFP dive midrange.
At what stage(s) of the cycle does the N54 inject fuel? purely homogenous (ie intake stroke)?
are we potentially very close to the limit of the injectors in upper RPM's, especially now that big turbo stuff is more commonplace?
The injectors ARE very impressive, given 100% (or 80%) duty cycle over 4 strokes they could flow something close to 3000hp as a set.. but with limited combustion windows, even at stock redline, that rapidly drops (someone care to work it out from the info given?) to something a LOT less exciting.
