'a' fuel injection system can. a few can. CIS mostly just cares about total airflow. a MAF system pretty much just cares about airflow and isn't as tuned to the engine's operating characteristics.
L-Jet might be, in theory, but it's calibrated (standard) to match full air flow metering with WOT full load. D-Jet won't have a clue about boost, it just measures manifold vacuum. the MegaSquirt and other programmable EFI's can manage boost, go read airsix's recent account of his new 1,7 turbo with programmable EFI. "7 lbs thrust" - that's the force of 7 lbs, yes? what's that in psi, at compressor stall ? i'm staying out of the eRam discussions. all this stuff CAN work in theory. show us the dyno numbers at the end of development and we'll be convinced. until then, not... |
