spray pattern no drips or squirts,can be done with injector piped up but out of head ,tdi would require spare pipe to bend suitably,

thanks will have a look at that at weekend cheers

dont whatever you do get any part of your body near spray pattern ,is injected at 280 bar

and the spray itself isn't so good for your lungs, it's not only a smell of fuel but very thin aerosol droplets (when testing the injectors with a test pump we use a special neutral liquid with characteristics similar to regular fuel)
