Low-Temp PowerStat™
|
|
| From the laws of
Physics, we know that cooler air is denser than warmer air, and since
horsepower increases as the amount of air and fuel burned increases,
cooler air makes more power. Replacing the factory thermostat with the
Hypertech low-temp PowerStat will allow the engine to run cooler, making
more power and reducing the engine's tendency to detonate. Detonation,
usually producing audible pinging or even knocking sounds, refers to the
spontaneous explosion of the unburned air/fuel mixture in the combustion
chamber. Detonation violently ends the normal combustion process,
reduces power, and can severely damage the engine. |

| To complete your performance package, Hypertech recommends the use of a low-temp thermostat to compliment the performance tuning found in the Hypertech Power Tuning™ products. A PowerStat low-temp thermostat improves perfor mance in two ways: first by inducing less heat into the intake air and second by reducing the engine's tendency to detonate. |
