Power was not lost because it was never produced to begin with. I'm not arguing that you made your engine more efficient at producing horsepower. Nor am I arguing about "souping-up" a WBX. I just have a problem with the statement that "power" was being LOST. It's just a matter of terminology. You can call improving efficiency anything you want. Likewise, so can I. I prefer to use terminology which is more scientifically accurate. It is less likely to cause confusion. I rest my case, BenT |
