Re: pfi & 747's

["Bruce Plecan" <nacelp@bright.net>]

Very early in the DIY was a guy (Dale Ulan(?)) that posted, the recommended
operating times of the P+Hs is 1-5 Msec, and 2-10 Msec for Sat..
I have yet to be able to disprove anything he wrote.
You can do alot of things, and kludge many things to get a system to work,
but injectors types, and stategies don't seem to be one of them.
Like the ongoing 4 P+Hs in series parr. wiring.  Some guys claim it works
just fine, yet when I run them thata way on the ecmbench you can hear them
starting to lose sync, sound funny.
  You want to run P+Hs in a saturated strategy that seems to work, but
drivers are an issue.
Jus some thoughts
