Hi matey - I thought you were going to bed

Right - yes that makes sense. Given that very very little (if anything) is linear in engine design, why should BSFC be different.

Even so, if the BSFC accounts for the different amount of fuel required to create power, if we substantially change the specification of the engine as above, why is the BSFC effectively not requiring alteration of the fuelling pressure etc?
