When the VVT phaser is commanded to manipulate cam variables (mainly intake valve closing) it changes the dilution levels and VE of an engine at certain operating points. This in turn affects compression ratio, rpm range, fuel economy and emissions by b…[Read more]

Thanks – stout is exactly what I had in mind – more of a brawler / hauler, daily hardened battle horse rather than a skitty one-trick dyno pony staged carefully on rare air cold mornings when the stars are perfectly aligned
