HMM....making a sequential tpi?

hey guys,
i just had a thought since the tpi is batch fired left and right bank, i was wondering if anyone had removed the tpi harness and computer, and installed a sequential efi harness onto their tpi motor. i guess that a crank trigger would have to be installed, but just wondering. it would probably help with the gas mileage and emissions the car made, maybe even give more power. email me please if anyone has attempted this type of modification.

The TPI batch fires all injectors. You'd have to rewire it and find an ECM that would work.

Someone used to sell a "kit" that converted your batch fire to sequential. Don't know if it actually worked or how hard it was to convert.

If it helps, the company that had the "kits" used to advertise them in Car Craft.
