Careful what you wish for! VW, Audi, Porsche, BMW etc are having all kinds of issues with Valve deposits. With direct injection, you no longer have the cleansing effects of fuel passing through the intake track, keeping the valves clean etc. I think Toyota has an upstream aux. injector to deal with this on theirs.
Doubt there will be a retrofit as the fuel rail runs at 2000 psi+ with direct injection! In the hands of your average DIY semi-skilled guy this would be a disaster waiting to happen!
Mine's already putting out 440hp plus.....so I'm not holding my breath on this!
