They're need for fuel efficiency is a lot higher. It is available in the US in the Mazdaspeed 3, Mazdaspeed 6 and the Mazda CX7.

Max HP speed will give best acceleration.

Direct injection means that the fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber, and the cylinder head has another opening for the fuel injector instead of injecting the fuel into the intake runner (what you called the "antechamber." Injecting the fuel directly into the combustion chamber requires much higher pressure to atomize the fuel in the higher pressures within the combustion chamber. Direct ignition has been around for over 15 years. -- Ray O (correct punctuation to reply)

Correspondingly, if you have a CVT, you can get away with an engine that has high torque in a very narrow speed range, whereas with a conventional transmission the engine has to be able to provide good torque over a wider range of speeds. (ie. the torque curve has to have a much wider peak on it). --scott -- "C'est un Nagra. C'est suisse, et tres, tres precis."

This is how I understand GDI (gasoline DIRECT injection), feel free to correct my mistake Fuel and air mixture are injected in some kind of pressure tank where the pressure is increased, by compressing the mixture I suppose. At this stage the ratio of the fuel and air is adjusted for optimum burn. This pressure tank sometimes called as a *common rail*? has a nozzle that will release the pressurized fuel-air mixture directly into the chamber chamber via the intake valves. This high pressure coupled with optimum ratio allows the engine to run more fuel efficiently and, of course, more powerful. The VVTi (toyota) will then adjust the opening of the valves whether to inject the mixture during the intake stroke or slightly delayed. |
