Message	Since you can't zero out all extraneous variables with on-car testing I personally wouldn't mention efficiency percentages, rather, I would simply post your data and leave the efficiency calculations to the people that get lost in racing dynos and flowbenches. How about recording dP from inlet to outlet? It would be interesting to see if/where the quest to increase thermal efficiency adversely affects the pressure drop accross the core.
