mfg Posted January 30 Author Report Share Posted January 30 Let's try this again...what item(s) on an Avanti MAGNIFIES the power of another item on the car, without requiring any power from that item? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunslinger Posted January 30 Report Share Posted January 30 It wouldn't be the blower as that takes engine horsepower to create positive pressure. The only thing I can think of would be the transistor ignition as it creates a stronger, more consistent spark...particularly at higher rpm's.

Very good answer, and I defer to you on that, however, it's really not the answer I was looking for... HINT....plastics 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
