[W126 Coupe] Engines

[David Fatovic]

No, my assumption wasn't that you can get MORE power
out of the engine doing this instead of supercharging
it.  My assumption was that I can get MORE power out
of the engine with new controls on it instead of the
current setup.  That it was ANOTHER way to get more
power out of the engine.
