I was wondering if someone would finally get direct exhaust injection to work.

As long as there is no one else with the idea patented then Im pretty sure it will be an easy life for my family and me lol. I sent an email to GM and they sent me a link to submit the patent to have their engineers look it over to see if they would be interested.
Best of luck my friend, however I do have a question, if your not able to answer it than now worries. How can it theoretically be an unlimited RPM motor if it is based on the a recipricating engine?

I'm interested in hearing more about this as it becomes safe for you to do so!

internal combustion is very violent during the combustion phase, this is not, well in theory and on paper it isnt lol, we will see once I make a prototype

Thats funny...I was working on something similar...But mine is a non emissions 440ci putting out 500hp..

naahhhhh jfwy! hahaha

Best of luck! That sounds like a really interesting investment you getting yourself in to!

One of the reasons the forced induction and high rpms is needed is to compensate for the power loss of fuel, we will see what happens it could turn out to be a dud idea but theoretically it will work

It's more the mass of the reciprocating parts that's got me intrigued. Acceleration forces are highest during TDC and BDC and that change of inertia is encountered twice every revolution and only once in every four events do combustion pressures add to the rotational limitations of the system.

I think this is gonna be an exciting time for you and your wife. I understand that you have to be hush hush till legal issues come through but I wish you the best of luck and hope it works out as planned. Like someone else said, just remember us little people when you've become a millionaire!!

Definitely interested in analyzing this myself once you get it all protected and whatnot.

Its worth taking the risk in building it if you know for sure it'll work out. Sounds like that's just stating the obvious, but its true. When I had my sequential on paper, I spent hours just staring at it to imagine any possibility of failure. If you've done the same and you think it will work, then it's going to work
