that means with bigger explosion plume would require altering your timing to maximize cylinder/pressure and torque at the correct crank angle. Basicaly a bigger explosion plume is the same as advancing your timing. The peak cylinder pressure would occur sooner than stock. If you left your timing stock, it could hurt performance because the peak cylinder pressure occured too soon. A Wedge combustion chamber like those found on many older V-8s would probably benefit more than engine with pentroof chamber with plug in center position like ours. A wedge chamber has the plug on one side meaning the flame front has to travel across the diameter of the cylinder vs. centered plugs like the hemi or pentroof where the flame front travels only half the distance in all directions. Again this is assuming that the plug works as advertized.
