I didn't really know where to post this but since the tuning part of it will be a huge PITA I figured engine management would be a good choice.
Has anyone dabbled in direct injection? Or better yet, is anyone interested in converting a BP to direct injection?
A friend of mine is very interested in direct injection and I have always been interested in doing something different. The I see the biggest problem being the injectors. Specifically, where to put them. I haven't taken a good look at the cylinder head but I'm guessing that with 4 valves/cylinder there isn't exactly a lot of space. As far as the injectors themselves, cannibalizing a VW motor will probably be the easiest thing to do.
Anyway, if you're also interested, let me know. If you want to know more about direct injection, post, and I'll explain what I know about it. One thing I should point out, this may be prohibitively expensive. It may take us a grand or two just to figure out what we're doing then more to actually implement it. Not like you guys have to pay for it or anything, I'm just saying that there's a reason why this isn't common.
Thoughts? please share them.
