How to Get More Power and Torque – Without Engine Mods

How to Get More Power and Torque – Without Engine Mods

If you think your new vehicle’s performance is as good as it gets, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. As advanced as modern petrol and diesel engines are, there are still substantial inefficiencies that stop more power and torque from reaching the wheels.

Short answer: a lot of an engine’s power is lost to internal friction and incomplete combustion. Reduce that friction, clean the fuel and oil systems, and burn the fuel more completely, and you can unlock real power and torque — with no engine modifications, and actually less stress on the engine.

Most notable is internal frictional loss — in diesel engines, this can be a staggering 25% of the horsepower developed in the combustion chamber. Another is the combustion process itself: the series of chemical reactions we call combustion has inefficiencies that remain, even with the most up-to-date fuel delivery systems available today.

Of course, engines don’t perform like new for long — deposits start forming almost immediately, and performance slowly deteriorates. Deposits sap power by hindering fuel systems, lubrication, compression control and much more.

At Cost Effective Maintenance, problems just create opportunities to solve them. Higher outputs of horsepower and torque are genuinely available with no modification to the engine at all — and because you’re recovering power that’s otherwise wasted, you actually reduce engine stress. (By contrast, “bolt-on” performance accessories like turbochargers, superchargers and chips increase engine stress.)

How Can My Vehicle Achieve More Power and Torque?

It comes down to four products working across friction, combustion and cleanliness:

AW10 Antiwear — cuts friction

Boosts the oil’s lubricating ability and friction-reducing qualities, cutting drag at all lubricated parts — so less of your power is lost to internal friction.

FTC Decarbonizer — improves combustion

Acts as a chemical catalyst to speed up the combustion reactions. A faster burn more closely approaches ideal combustion, so most of the fuel burns closer to top-dead-centre, with less wasteful tail-end burning out the exhaust.

Cleanpower & CRD Fuel Enhancer — optimise fuel delivery

Both optimise fuel-system clean-up, injector response and precision. CRD is the common rail diesel version of Cleanpower, providing boosted fuel lubricity for pumps and injectors while further reducing top-end drag.

Flushing Oil Concentrate — restores compression

Removes oil-system deposits that accumulate over time, to optimise compression and lubrication and reduce internal drag and stress.

Dyno guarantee: the higher horsepower and torque can be measured on a dynamometer, and the driveability improvements are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. If you can’t measure an improvement in power and torque on a dyno using these products as instructed, we’ll refund the cost in full. Cost Effective Maintenance now offers discounted performance packages suitable for as-new diesel and petrol engines, and for sound engines of any age.

For more on the science behind it, see our approved fuel-efficiency testing, how FTC Decarbonizer works, and how AW10 Antiwear reduces friction.
