Default Re: Why is the secondary injector circuit so complicated?

Controlling the secondaries using the ECM would have required additional injector drivers, again necessitating a significantly modified or new ECM. So the injector relays are a less expensive alternative while using the primary injector as simply the ?trigger?. Then u cut the PW by 50% whenever the secondaries are engaged. Voila!
Well put!
