Question about fuel injection from a newbie

I haven't found conclusive proof of this, but your back to back test might. Even then, the results will only be relative to your engine and that injector.

That being said, I have never seen higher fuel pressure hurt performance so at worst, it is equal to lower pressure in terms of performance. All my statements here are assuming that you are making the proper corrections to your tune or calibration so that you are always delivering the same net amount of fuel, just one with lower pulsewidth / high pressure, the other with higher pulsewidth / low pressure.

Thanks David. I appreciate your and everyone's help. I need all I can get.
