an apprentice mechanic I know told me that if you put exhaust manifold insulating tape on your solid fuel lines and fuel rail it will give you more power.
now i know that the colder all the ingredients are the better the combustion....but im not sure if this is true of he is just talking S%&%.
the later of the two sounds more likelly
negligable, of course having some things cooler is better, carbied cars more so cause it prevented the fuel vaporising in the carb, but fuel injected i wouldnt be so concerned about

ive heard that painting your engine covers gets you some gains aswell, maybe we can wrap the whole car in insulating tape so it stays cooler!!!
Then tune it hey BDC?
