The edit to your last post is welcome. Crucially you now agree with what CW has been saying in principle, so well done, we are halfway there.

As for the other change:

This is misleading. You can't increase the speed of the combustion reaction to extract more energy - we've been over this before.
I'm not going to rehash the whole thread to prove that you are taking my comments out of context. I will just paste your reply from the time:

"the ignition timing is simply adjusted to ensure the maximum pressure in the cylinder is occuring at TDC."
Which isn't a good concept to be promoting.
