[quote=Zunige;464266] The increased fuel and increased air obviously will create a more powerful explosion, which will push the piston down with much greater force, when the mixture is detonated. /QUOTE]

Enrique, I agree with the benefits of modern electronic fuel injection. But you are perpetuating a misunderstanding by referring to a "more powerful explosion." The fuel/air mixture should "burn" in a controlled fashion, not "explode." Explosions are also referred to as "detonation" and are not a good thing!
