Very interesting....Yet another innovative technological accomplishment that never made it into the main stream. But, it kinda begins to validate my hypothesis on a WAI.Warmer air = more combustible = less fuel requiredTo a certain point - the problem with Hot Vapor setups is that the fuel mix will autoignite regardless to ECM control and timing (unavoidable hot spots in the engine). In the case of moderate temperature increases - the ECM can control timing to a certain point to help avoid the issue.
Now.....Please correct me if I'm wrong but in today’s cars timing is controlled by the ECU. Therefore, if you were to increase the intake air temp altering the point of detonation the cars ECU should automatically adjust.
Like what a knock-sensor does to adjust for different fuel octanes.
Also to add more to your hypothesis on warmer temps - true less fuel is required which also equals less power. The problem is finding a happy medium - difficult in an uncontrollable enviroment like everyday driving.
