I just want to throw in this point, since it sometimes gets confused when people are talking about moving away from the "ideal" BSFC zone: operating at a less efficient point on the BSFC map as a result of aero mods doesn't imply increased fuel consumption.
Fuel consumption will in almost all normal situations still be improved, but overall efficiency (the engine's ability to produce a unit of power for a given amount of fuel) is reduced.
Not saying anyone in this thread misunderstands the point. Just putting it out there because I've seen it happen.
