Yes to both.  I think that the EC-2 can be tuned to accept the slight
difference between the two colors of injectors.  If it can not, I still have
the option of installing all 4 yellow.  That would mean that I would have to
increase the fuel pressure to 57 psi which I would like to avoid.

I am really interested in hearing what other Renesis fliers are using for
fuel pressure and what fuel flow they are getting on takeoff or WOT.  They
should be getting a fuel flow of around 20 GPM and I am curious to know if
they are.

Bill,
I guess that's yellow primary at an average of 380cc/m and blue secondary
502cc/m = 882cc/m = 441cc/m each injector.
Can you get 440cc/m injectors? (as Tracy suggests) if you can, you will have
2 injectors the same, as Ed suggests. Might make things simpler to manage.

I guess you might be saying you have the yellow and blue injectors to hand,
and wish to use what you have.
