[QUOTE="mc01svt, post: 11255903, member: 32337"] Diesel is more efficient because the fuel has higher energy content. Also they are running 2x compression ratio of a typical gasser. Can you imagine if you could get a production gasoline engine with 19:1 compression (impossible without cryongenics)? The coyote would be 600hp stock and pull 30mpg. I haven't a clue why they are using dual plugs. Maybe to to make up with defiencies in swirl effect or some other head/valve design problem. But i do know that adding dual plugs does not provide any MPG benefit, possibly emissions. GM 6.2 has similar hp and identical mpg in their truck to fords. There are no secrets in the industry. To my knowledge there are very few (if any) other engines that use dual plugs, logically this means the 6.2 is using them for some reason other than efficiency. Since efficiency is so very important these days. Even if they were to cost $50 a pop thats nothing compared to the increased sales you would get if you had an equivalent vehicle with 10% more fuel economy than anything else on the market. Think about it. You don't think Audi/BMW/Lexus would be using it? Also as i said, motorsports is usually 10yrs ahead to production vehicles. Would be nice if a race car could take 1 or 2 less pit stops by using these plugs or that a dragster could make 5% more power. Formula 1 teams have millions in dollars in engine developement with no expense spared. :read: Notice it reads "[COLOR="Red"][B]up to [/B][/COLOR]10%." key words "up to" meaning you will likely get much, much less. If it worked in real world VW or GM would have bought the rights/patents and put them in their engines by now. [/QUOTE]
