I've been reading up on direct gasoline injection http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_Direct_Injection for a little while and want to what you guys think will be the future of ethanol in these vehicles. Every year there are more and more vechiles coming out with a GDI engine available or standard.
Audi a4 and vW 2.0t, Volvo 2.0t, Mitsu 1.8, Isuzu 3.5 etc.
they all run higher than normal CR and boast better fuel economy and more power than their port injected counterparts
I read the MIT paper http://lfee.mit.edu/public/LFEE_2005-001_RP.pdf on ethanol supplemented through GDI to aid a gasoline vehicle but does anybody have any links to a straight e85 Direct Injected vehicle running ethanol.
I would think this would be a great future engine. what do you guys think |
