Now it looks to me like the friction loss is 3%, you can't claim your product eliminates friction, so even if you cut it in half, you only reduce engine loss by 1.5%.
How does this yield a 10% or better increase in MPG?
You understand this right? 3% of engine loss is due to friction, how does eliminating this yield a dyno test result that's 20% more horsepower?
A bunch of stories about how much better a gun shoots or how happy people are is not considered evidence as to the effectiveness of a product. Show us independent testing result numbers, cousin Bob winning his first race does not count.
And for the sake of Pete, do NOT go on some pseudo-science technobabble diatribe here, you will look pathetic if you try.
Plain English and simple terms following a logical progression of how it is that you can make a 3% loss result in a 20% gain would be really appreciated. |
. . . because the math is exceedingly simple. If DiamondLube can answer, then fine. If the rest of you cannot answer, this reflects badly on this forum and it's members.
Or is this a rhetorical question by Chaz? You already know the answer and you are going to answer it, correct?
