Default Re: The official eaton supercharger thread.

I figured you were going to say that. If you pull a factory injector out of your manifold and shine a light into the injector bung you will notice that the injector is firing extremely close to the port wall. In fact it is closer than the clearance I have in the tubes I'm using. The conical spray has to exceed .55 inches in width one inch from the injector nozzle for the spray to collect in the tube. I'm not saying its impossible, just that I have slightly more clearance than the factory setup.

With what you show, the fuel is going to collect on the walls of the injector tubes, and drip down, causing pooling instead of A/F atomization. This will actually cause a lean burn condition.
