Not strictly DIY_EFI but sorta related. This thread on the Saab APC system
has got me thinking. I have seen several references in Racecar Engineering
to anti-lag systems used on current FIA rally cars like the ford, subaru and
mitsubishi. In particular I was wondering how the system worked?
I know that early eighties ferrari F1 cars used a system that bypassed air
from the turbo compressor straight into the exhaust system when the throttle
was closed and ran a rich mixture to create combustion in the exhaust. I
also read somewhere that peugeot used to inject propane into the exhaust to
acheive the same effect before it was banned in the group B rally cars.
Depending on how these current systems work, I would like to adapt it to my
current project.
Any info would be appreciated.
