Engine Masters · Season 6 · Episode 11
Does compression make power? The easy answer is yes, but the answers we're looking for today have more to do with how it makes power and how sensitive it becomes to temperature on pump gas. Does it favor top or bottom-end power, or does a point of compression equal a linear increase across the powerband?
