Keep in mind the load on the cam changes when the bypass opens and closes plus the extra load on the gears caused by the restriction. There's HP loss there plus add the effect on valve and ignition timing varying. Consider the slop in the chain affecting ignition timing it all adds up to HP you're leaving on the table.




Be Well & Work Hard it's Fun!
