Sadly not, Turnip. Can't claim to have invented it. Hats off to the one
who did, though. Given the names you just love to call others.


OTOH electronic injection and better materials and turbos have impproved
efficiency by about 20%, from around 20% to maybe nearly 40%.

And that sort of ******** just show why Turnip is such a good name for you.

If the efficiency of an engine improves from 20% to 40% that is a 100%
improvement.


If the amount of energy wasted by an engine falls from 80% to 60% that's
only a 25% improvement.
