[Diy_efi] Sequential fire setup

I was thinking more about the inertial supercharging effects of air hooning
in at 150 MPH and pressuring the airbox. F1 boys reckoned they lost 40HP
when they had to cut holes in them after the Senna crash. Now that's at
180MPH, which a 1200 HP drag car should reach?

Not sure which entrance angle you mean: injectors to inlet port or inlet to
head. These are DTH TBs on a 4-pot so are in line with the port. The
injectors in the test runs are manually positioned whilst a dyno run is
taken, so a number of locations can be tried.
