Funny thing, since nor customer nor even a sophisticated dealership or tuneup shop have no means to actually measure those HP. Yet everyone believe in it. Actually, I think when it comes to autos, these kinds of figures are very well protected by the courts and either consumer protection groups or the government itself. I believe recently, the latest Mazda Miata was introduced with the claim that there was a 15hp boost in the engine, whereas all measurements indicated a 5-10hp loss. Mazda was sued etc., and was forced to make an offer whereby consumers could go so far as return the car for a refund in some cases. By making it almost fatal for auto companies to mislead the public, these numbers have a lot of teeth to them. Milan
