Re: Does freed horsepower = added horsepower
I'm pretty sure we're all saying the same thing in one way or another. Everyone here knows how an engine works.

Re: Does freed horsepower = added horsepower
Interesting discussions.
I think in the end, the bore/stroke and RPM have the most influence on how much power you will be able to make, then everything you add to this takes away power, or in some cases (fuel type and force induction) will add power, however in the end the bore/stroke and RPM still will limit the power that was potentially there. Such as a F1 engine, 3.0liter, V12 but at 19,000 RPM = the ability to make 750 HP. However a 3.0 liter V12 production Ferrari engine at 8,000 RPM only equals around 550 HP. Now I have completly forgotten what my point was, and were I was going with this so I will stop now.
