Fine, do it and then dyno it superhero... You'll see we are not making this up. There is a real, noticeable, measurable, and significant performance improvement across the board for this engine by making this change. Period.

See the bolded word?

If you have actually measured it, say how and show the results. That is all people are asking.

Jesus Christ. What do you not understand about what we're saying here. How have YOU MEASURED it? You're making claims about gaining HP/TQ, better fuel efficiency and lower temps without providing evidence for it. You have ZERO measurable data here to back up your claims.

We're not being assholes. We're simply asking for proof of how you measured all this. Yet your only reply is that you made a measurable gain. Measurable in what way exactly?

Why do I need to dyno it when you have already tested the car and done the measurements??? Just post your data that you have OBVIOUSLY collected and we will move on..
