Hmm...

I suppose it would come down to the amount of internal engine friction losses being more energy than the additional energy needed to accelerate (alt and accessories don't factor for me, cause I don't have any anymore)
Mine is too old for a scan guage.

Anyone with a diesel and instrumentation that can quantify any loss/gain?
