Lightbulb 3.0 V6 cold start Injector on Demand

Has anyone thought of maybe wiring a switch into the cold start injector on the L-jet V6? Is it possible? Would this have any gain in performance, (switch it on perhaps when wanting to overtake) or would it just ruin mixture making it too rich?

Yeh she would just run extra rich and you would loose power, waste fuel and the extra fuel can wash the oil off the bores and cause the engine to wear more quickly.

Well, as long as you wire up a nitrous injector with the same switch it would help......

Not much of a point, considering the L-jet already has full throttle enrichment programmed into it.
