Exclamation expandable/adjustable fuel injectors

This guy on the supra forums has a patent pending adjustable fuel injector. He will basically take stock injectors, modify them to whatever flow rate you want. He's tested them up to 20k rpms! Some crazy stuff. I may have him expand a set of mine.

What do you guys think?

Why? There's already a ton of injector sizes available. You'll just need to tune the fuel map to match the injectors anyway.

issues to consider

1) injector lag and linearities--deadtime and mass flow vs injector pulsewidth

2) durability of the solenoid and electrical assembly

3) injector atomization--what is the statistical distribution of the droplet size

4) resistance to deposits

Basiclly

In theory it works, in real life its pointless.

i can increase my injector output too with easy to tune FUEL PRESSURE!

i did watch a few of the early videos and wanted to bash my head into a wall they were so crude, at least later he made a real flowbench but i never bothered to see if he actually showed any results. i was getting irritated at his claims on patents, a real patent costs $5k plus lawyer fees so i know he was full of it.
