Formula 1 is a game of millimeters, but Mercedes just lost a massive battle over internal engine temperatures. The FIA has ...

Increasing an engine’s compression ratio is a proven way of unlocking extra horsepower, but there’s a point of diminishing returns. The team at Garage 54, the Russian mechanics who built a V16 using ...

There are several types of engine compression testers. Be sure to use the correct type for your specific engine, otherwise ...

It's only teasing a bit of information for now, but it will be properly unveiled during this year's Paris Motor Show. Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car ...

The new FIA rule change regarding the controversial engine compression ratio officially becomes active on June 1.

Assuming a properly tuned engine, there are three factors that contribute to poor streetability: long cam duration, high compression ratios, and excessive cruise rpm. Since cam selection is largely ...

"Too little compression will usually result in unmet performance expectations. On the high side [too much compression] carries greater risk in tuning and potential component failure if appropriately ...

What is compression ratio? An explanation of compression ratio; what it means and why it is important. Why some cars need ...

Pretty simple question actually (or so my ignorant mind thinks): At what compression ratio would an engine benefit from higher octane fuel? The Focus I drive is just over 10:1, and I've heard some say ...
