retard the ignition i think you mean
I knew I would get it the wrong way round!!!!!

Reference to fuel, yes I remember you explaining this to me before - IIRC the type of injector also has an effect here.

Going back to the BSFC - lets focus on this for a moment. given that we have taken our standard engine, and potentially changed the compression ratio, the cam timing, the flow of air through the head, the VE and the turbo etc, I am mindful to wonder whether we have now changed our BSFC. If not, then what exactly affects this?

Sorry if this is a dumb question
