[Diy_efi] injector advance

[Gianmarco Rizzo (BE/EAS)]

Hi

i guess the difference is that sequential squirts fuel at each inlet valve opening while in the batch all injectors fire at the same time


maybe this doesnt answer the question but my knowledge stops here :-)

In regards to injector timing, what is the principle of bank to bank,
or batch, as compared to sequential.  At what point, does sequential
become batch?  Owners of performance engines are glad/fortunate
they have 720* to work with.
