As it sits; you would basically have to add a second injector driver and 'theoretically' you could... but it would take development separate pulse-widths... not really without serious modifications. Idea 1: If your interested; a second ecu could do this as well. Make one ecu control one set of hardware, then the other is wired into the sensors, but gives no physical output to ignition, and has its own injectors. Problem solved with readily available hardware. This would be ideal for different fuel systems. Add a second map sensor for one ecu, and you can use a missing link on the OEM injection system. Anything in boost would be added by the second fuel system; and thus you could run high octane under boost only with a fuel cell. To take it farther; Idea 2: [With one map sensor, and two ecu's] You could make one ecu's tables supply fuel up to X amount of boost; while the other ECU has all zeros up to X, in which it takes over... making it a very conservative machine on the street, but being able to have super high HP on better gas (like C16) and not waste the $$$ in fuel at normal driving times. The transition point between the ECU's will be odd... both ecu's would probably have a lean dip at the switchover point... only hands-on trials will confirm this. I plan to implement something like this in the future... but I would need a second eCtune license, and that I dont have yet ;)

why would you want to do this again? You can already make more power on pump gas then you could ever hook on the street.. The injector technology is good enough where 1000HP capable injectors can idle and part throttle a car almost as good as stock.. it seems very pointless lol.

I want to run the two ecu method and two sets of injectors purely to have boost run high octane fuel; while running 87/pump on the low boost and rest of the maps. It can even be cross tuned as to use less high octane fuel under medium boost. This can make a real impact on your pocketbook in a long term sense. A good impact; especially if you were running leaded fuel: Full time leaded fuel and you would need to replace your wideband after ~5-8k miles... Running unleaded under most conditions would help extend the life of it substantially.
