Injector Sizing, realistic goals, etc

[CSH-HQ]

Remind me off list about your project when you see CSH, HQ open.
I got some maps, inna poor format  that shoul interest you

4 cyl that ecm, saturated or P+H, dependib on pin out.
syty was saturated, sunbird P+H  Hence the difference in wiring
Personally, I like turbos.
