Re: To Arno: closed-loop and open-loop running

With well-tuned intake and exhaust systems, there is an optimum throttle body setting for a particular engine speed.

If the throttle opening is too small or too large for a particular engine speed, performance will suffer.

This can be best observed in small, highly tuned engines, such as in motorcycles.

The next time you climb a high speed,long hill, try closing the throttle slightly when the engine starts to lose speed.
