Didnt think they "fired" at the same time ? - injection timing and duration are controlled by the ECU.

Yes I know but what I mean is there is still un burnt fuel in the cylinders but its not doing any damage is it
It just passes through the exhaust system

Your injectors have a constant 12v ignition feed to them anyway.

They are fired by the ecu switching the other side to ground.

Both cats are removed
I was just wondering if it would cause more flames out the back on over run as the exhaust only has one box and no cats
