It's very clear on this forum which members come from automotive backgrounds and which members just went out and bought a BMW one day and decided to join a forum. Once you've been building and tuning engines for about a decade, you'll start to see "information" like this as pure nonsense that only serves to confuse and worry people who still view engines as magically complex mysteries.
