    Would anyone like to see an injector timing specific video? when the injectors are in normal location close to the head, they respond quite a bit different to what is seen here. I didn't want to go into it too much in this vid. as already a lot going on.

  • @weekendcardad1881
    @weekendcardad1881 Год назад +16

    I'm seeing how the difference of the outer vs inner placement of the injectors is effecting your curve. The outer injectors allows greater atomizing time of the fuel in relation to how the intake pulse rebounds off the intake valve when it closes. Very similar to the results of when you change the runner length. Now do a setup with dual injectors; Inboard for idle to 6,000 and outboard injectors for 6,000- 9,500.

  • @tx5brent
    @tx5brent Год назад +3

    I find this quite interesting. The outboard injection I played with on motorbike engines used injectors with a very narrow spray pattern and mounted them quite a distance from the bell mouth. The outboard injectors were only used at high rpm high load, the port injection was used for everything else. You don't have the space to do anything like that though. I also wasn't a huge fan of how the intake track would catch on fire if there was a backfire and have flames licking at the high pressure fuel rail mounted above it. Felt kind of sketchy.

  • @megamonkey56
    @megamonkey56 Год назад +18

    i think the effective intake length is effected only slightly by the increased density of air and fuel.
    improved air and fuel homogenisation is likely what helps power more.
    i'd guess you might be able to tweak spark timing a very tiny bit with the outboard injectors, or increase coil strength/voltage

    • @roboman2444

  • @Stiefe300
    @Stiefe300 Год назад +4

    The better atomisation of the fuel on the high rpm, should also help to keep the burning temperatur lower then with the normal setup, because more fuel can vaporise(vaporization cools). This should also mean that you could advance the timing a little more, because the knock probability goes down, in theorie, which would mean a little bit more power again on the high side.
    But just Theoretically 😂

  • @roman3s
    @roman3s Год назад +1

    Here's my theory. Outer injectors are generally associated with high rpm engines.
    But the necessity for this comes from two things.
    At 10k+ rpm, there really isnt enough time for air and fuel to mix.
    But more importantly, engines that can do 10k+ RPM usually have a long rod/stroke ratio, and a wide bore with short stroke. Which I believe gives considerably worse air/fuel mix than motors designed for lower rpm that will have a square or long bore/stroke ratio.
    So mixing in the intake makes up for the lack of mixing available from tumble etc inside the cylinder.
    On my 1NZ motor, I can have the injectors right by the port, or right outside of the trumpets, and the air/fuel ratio stays identical, even idles fine.
    I think because the motor naturally mixes air/fuel well, regardless of where it's coming from.

  • @donguhl2499
    @donguhl2499 Год назад +1

    I believe that the gains are derived from 2 main things. 1). The latent heat of vaporization of the fuel. As the fuel vaporizes, it pulls heat from the air and creates a more dense charge. The further away from the intake valve, the better the effect. This is why this setup works really well with alcohol fuels (E85 and methanol), as their latent heat of vaporization is much greater than gasoline. 2). The additional mass added to the air charge helps keep the air moving as the valve closes, yielding a better overall volumetric efficiency. I would be very curious to see a dual injection setup where the fuel is supplied by the inner injectors, they phased to the outer throughout the peak torque range, then phased back to the inner injectors above peak torque. This is how the motorcycle manufactures do it, but those engines rev much higher. I would also like to see this test done without the shorter runners, but I'm not sure you have enough room with the current setup.

  • @superiorracing8051
    @superiorracing8051 Год назад

    The difference is usually more evident on hot days. The injector setup outside the ports cools the intake charge more. Even so it is usually small gains. But on hot days that can make all the difference.

  • @alexhaws2377
    @alexhaws2377 Год назад

    Outboard injectors are generally only used for higher revving engines, allowing more time for a good mixture. On many rally engines you run two sets of injectors, one at the back of the valves for low rpm, blending to the outer set at higher rpm. A company I used to work for did a test about 20yrs ago, engine on dyno, guy in the cell holding the fuel rail and walking backwards from the engine. Power increased the further away he got. Fun test but obviously practical limits to that. As you've seen, things like this, runner length and injector timing are all nth degree stuff but they all add up. Most people that tune engines on standalone don't bother with it but people who specialise in a particular engine will generally have been through all this kinda thing to make theirs the best. Anyway, good work, nice to see proper vids on RUclips!

    Curious about the Injector orifice design and testing eg: Single outlet (old) VS multiple smaller ones (new).
    I know they help idle quality but more thinking atomisation and then maybe trying way upping the fuel pressure with the newer injector type.

    @recoilrob324 Год назад +1

    A timed injection with such a large injector that it's only running 40% duty cycle isn't taking full advantage of the atomization time the longer distance affords....might see different results with a constant injection which will fill the runner better and might/should atomize better. And I believe that 10K rpm is about where the benefits of the longer injection distance begins to show benefits vs injecting right at the back of the valve. F1 motors that spun to 18K liked the injectors at the stack mouth but that kind of rpm is beyond what that Toyota will deliver so this also is muddying the results.
    Spinning it high enough to really show an advantage is not possible...but running the injectors like they're a CIS might offer some benefit. Good testing! Always enjoy your videos when you post them!

    • @roman3s
      @roman3s Год назад

      If you have a lower duty cycle, spraying more fuel earlier. Then ALL of the fuel gets closer to the same amount of time to evaporate. If you have a high duty cycle, some of it will have had 90% evaporation time and some 10% evaporation time (or whatever)

    I’ve been hearing on the interwebs, that aiming a much bigger then normal injector at the back of the valve when it’s open has the most gain outside of direct injection. Something to do with better atomisation of the fuel and less condensate forming on the intake runner walls.
    Going by the runs you made, it looks like the outboard injection had better HP up top while the normal location had better torque down low. Only marginally though.
    It could be an idea to run both if your computer can handle it

    • @3800S1
      @3800S1 Год назад

      Interestingly on a similar effect. I have noticed on my car when "upgrading" to the newer EV6? design over the older large body EV1 type, that starting, idle quality are worse and economy is marginally worse even with full injector characterizing and corrected AFRs. I think it might be because the older injectors are like fire hoses and inject straight on to the back of the valve where as the newer type is a fine mist and wider cone patterns. So being batch fire I recon the newer injectors despite being more atomized is just wetting the walls more than the old type which hits majority of its fuel on the back of the valve.

  • @doomprojectremap3411
    @doomprojectremap3411 Год назад +1

    the fuel injector spray will be effecting the resonating air movement in the runner, with the external fuel injectors see how high you can run the fuel pressure on the injectors. the higher the fuel pressure spray the more energetic it will become. by running a much higher fuel pressure this may help create a small Venturi effect by drawing in surround ambient air and slightly increasing the air pressure in the intake pipe / at the intake valve. think of how energetic a high pressure washer is, and how it influences the surrounding ambient air while only using a small amount of water. the other thing to take note is the finer the fuel droplets you can make while using higher fuel pressures the more chance you have of evaporating all of the fuel into a gas forum which will be fuel that is guaranteed to burn on the combustion process unlike large size fuel droplet (liquid fuel does not burn) the more fuel you can vaporize into a gas the less wasted fuel you will need to inject into the engine which allows the intake valve to have a chance at flowing a little bit more air than it usually would. could also try different types of fuel injectors and spray atomization patterns and the max operating fuel pressure's.

  • @DarkKnight-cd4dv

    It's most likely due to the change in density. By moving the injectors out further it lowers the temperature and increases the density. If you used a alcohol like E85 or methanol it would show a even larger change.

  • @stevesimpson5994
    @stevesimpson5994 Год назад

    It's probably been said already, but isn't upstream injection about allowing sufficient time for fuel vapourisation at high speed?
    Hyabusa have two sets of injectors per port. One is downstream of the throttle butterfly and aimed towards the spark plug. The other is upstream of the butterfly an aims at a fixed plate in the intake. I think the intention is to smash the fuel on the plate into smaller particles, which are easier to atomise.
    Anyway, thanks for the cool video. I always bring my popcorn and headphones :-)

    I would suspect injector timing would have a much larger impact with the injectors in the "close" position. There is much less time for the fuel to atomize and mix with the air. Injector timing doesn't really seem to matter much at WOT and high RPM, but it does have a noticeable impact on idle quality and emissions at low to medium RPM and loads.

    That was my thought on the outer vs inner, that they seemed to be having a similar effect as changing the inlet length. Looking at the dip midway through the run it shifts up and down with injector placement. I wonder if the speed of sound in air+fuel vapour is different 🤔 suppose it would be!
    Although I expect it could be due to the air being cooler as well, which also changes the speed of sound in it...

  • @wespeace2869
    @wespeace2869 Год назад +1

    Something I might suggest is to mess with cam timing and/or cam to cam timing in order to get more overlap to allow the exhaust to do more scavenging to pull in more of that colder denser air charge. Something else like someone mentioned is with that colder denser air charge you can put a little bit more timing without detonation. Also turning up the fuel pressure as long as the injectors can take it would allow for more vaporization of the fuel. Also a fuel like methanol would show more of a improvement due to the higher latent heat and vaporization.

    I am a bit surprised/disappointed with the results.
    I thought that the farther from the valve the injection occurs, the more homogeneous the mixture in the cylinder will be.
    It should also have a slight effect on the intake temp.
    but I still think that the location of the injection will affect the behavior of the engine in a half throttle situation.
    What are the injectors, looking at the duty cycle they must be damn big.

    So I’m guessing long runners + outer injectors will be best of both worlds. There does look to be substantial gains in different parts of the maps with the outer/inner injectors. Does your ecu have 8 injector drivers? Could you run a varying ratio of inboard to outboard injectors?

      This is what i was hinting at, at the end. I'm not sold that running the outer injectors on the longer normal length intake will be better, or make the intake act longer again. which will make less power. only 4 drives unfortunately

  • @oikkuoek

    This is like tuning a grand piano with a sledge hammer.. Moving the injector further away from the valve evens out the mixture, makes the droplets smaller (ideally) and cools down the intake making the air more dense. The mix has overall more inertia, making it behave differently. SO to get the best out of it, the port/runner shape, valve profile, valve timing, cam lobe profile, spark energy and timing, need all to support the different location of the injector. Messy shaped runner denses the droplets bigger than they were in stock form, and if the valve&cam profile doesn't support the longer wet runner length, the closing hot intake valve creates a pulse that pushes the mix out from the runner rather than into the cylinder. Just like you can't whack a Grand Piano with a sledge hammer and expect it to be in tune, you can't just make one drastic change on your setup and expect it to perform better with just tickling it. And for the cam timing, just as injector/spark timing, it needs a different value @ different rev and load.

      If the closing inlet valve has just had a fresh charge over it why would it be hot?
      Wouldn't the most heat and reversion come from the overlap on the inlet valve opening (lowest inertia in intake port) while the piston is still rising in the bore expelling exhaust gas past the actually hot exhaust valve?

    On several videos you put the oil and water temp. On some test you made an oil temp comparison as well. How do you adjust the oil temp? The lower limit is obviously with a thermostat (btw do you have an adjustable thermo?) , but how do you keep this temperature constant? I can see nothing special on your engine! Thanks

    • @Garage4age
      @Garage4age  Год назад +1

      water temp is just around the thermostat temp. I let the car cool for a few mins after each test, once the oil temp drops to my target i run the car again. running the car hard on back to back runs will get the oil temp up. i usually run the tests at 90 or 95deg as its easiest to target on this setup. Also i do at least 4 full pulls after the car has warmed up, before start any testing

  • @MrTommymxr
    @MrTommymxr Год назад

    As everyone else says, more time for the fuel to atomise and cool the charge, similar to carbs. however putting the injectors outside is kind of a fire hazard.
    Also the longer length means more area for fuel to stick to the walls of the runner, messing with throttle response and mixture.
    speaking of mixture, what mixture are you targeting?
    not sure if you ever mentioned that.
    also have you tested the differences between E0, E5, E10, E85?

    • @jalopyjalopy9489

      These are straight runners, fuel deatomization occurs mainly when you have bends in runners so it's not likely to deatomize in this intake setup.

      I would think so. As for the gains, i could see more in some situations. if you start stacking things; like engines that dont do a good job of mixing fuel. poor injector spray pattern, intakes that heat soak bad or suck hot air from behind a radiator or something. then combine it with an intake thats a little short.

      It's tough to say. You could try making the runners even shorter and see what happens. It's too bad the engine bay is too small to run outboard injectors with your standard size runners.

    • @crd-nz_001
      @crd-nz_001 Год назад

      In effect, it's turning the fuel delivery into a carburetored system, where fuel is introduced much earlier into the intake tract.
      While introducing a theoretical heavy fuel into the air, it would stand to reason that it would be harder to move. This would support the idea of needing a shorter runner.
      However, fuel atomization does throw in some curve balls. It is well demonstrated on V8s that intakes designed only for airflow perform poorly with the challenge of fuel distribution.
      No, on an ITB setup, fuel distribution is not a problem. However, the smooth runners on the inside will be more prone to produce fuel running down its walls, like rain beads on glass. That is not how fuel wants to burn.
      Perhaps, if not already done, the insides of the runners were exposed to a light sandblast? The gentle abrasive surface would be less willing to produce those beads.

There looks to be some small gains maybe 1-2kw coming from the cooling or better fuel mix theory's. but unlikely they would move the power curve around so much. looking specifically at the flatline at 8k that gets filled the same way as the longer intake

      ​@@crd-nz_001 The throttle plates sure must work like a carby at idle. the fuel literally runs out where the top half of the runner bolts to the filter backing plate. but quite happily idles the same as it normally does on the same tune. Last time i did it i recorded down the intake runner. once on song the fuel cleared out and nothing seemed to have time to get anywhere near the sides. kept this in mind when starting the runs this time. giving it a quick zing and using the overrun fuel cut on decel to ensure and fuel pooled was gone at start of run. The top black part is pretty smooth, rest of the intake all the way to the valve has a bit of texture to it.
