Your absolutely right! and based on logic that we should not be seeing carbon build up because of the port injection...but unfortunately its not true IRL. owners are still both D4S and DI engines are seeing similar early carbon buildups, with D4S being the lesser of two evils.

Its not entirely clear why they are getting carbon, but they do know that DI plays a major roll in it.
