Junkyard turbo ecms

An injector has a min "on" time that it needs, on most of you large
injectors (TPI) you need to had a min on of about 1 msec.  or the idle will
be just too rich.   The injector might try to run at the short time on
periods, but may get erratic.

Once your at about 25% the injector with a SEFI the intake valve is already
open as long or close to the injector pulse width, so the fuel is spraying
at an open valve anyway.  If the fuel is sprayed when the valve is close
that promotes vaporization, and better burning.  What would be neat is a
injector that could work at say 25% DC at WOT and supply enough fuel for max
HP, and also be controllable for a good idle.
