Wow. You are hard core. I'm too lazy to be that ambitious.

A study of intake air temperature vs fuel flow vs torque for a range of typical RPM's would be good. The torque should encompass the range from WOT right down to zero. This would be good data for warm air intakes.

I also would like to see real dyno data for camshaft timing. The data should include the full range of torque from zero to WOT for the RPM's tested.

A garden hose is useable in cold weather. You just need to store it indoors and start the water flow immediately after hooking it up.
