I thought the concept was rather like a diesel.  Relatively high =
pressure,
fuel introduced as near the time of ignition as possible to reduce the
opportunity to detonate.  I would expect that time to be long after the
intake valve has closed.  Am I not understanding something about GDI?

surely you'd need much bigger injectors as your spray time per engine =
cycle
is less, or will you raise pressure or also spray a little when the =
inlet
valve is closed ?
