Default Zetec injection question

Early days for me & my 1.8 Zetec install but I have a bit of a dilemma over the injection method.

I'll start from the beginning.

After almost 2 years of worrying about engine choice I finally opted for the 1.8 Escort Silver top Zetec engine.

I will be using the Megasquirt ECU to run the engine.

I ended up with 2 sets of throttle bodies. CBR900 R1 & CBR900 R2. ( Long story )

After a bit of reading & a nice chat with Martin Jeffery ( Engine tuner )
It would appear that injection, directly into the head is a little more effective than injection into the thottle boddy.

As the Zetec has a separate injector rail, both options are available when I make the inlet manifold.


If any members have chosen the Zetec + throttle body combination, I would love to have your input.
