If some is good, more is better

if more is too much, then its just right.

And the secret to going fast: Buy it, try it, then put it on the shelf.

It's like a dyno test session. When your all said and done, you found out what doesn't work.

I always thought it was "If some is good, more is better and too much is just right!" Applies especially to camshaft duration and carburetion.
