Characteristics and Benefits of PRV Induction
1. Improved fuel economy is obtained from better fuel/air mixing at all throttle positions.
2. Green house gas emissions are reduced, including CO2.
3. Improved power from lower charge temperature, improved mixing and higher compression/higher boost pressure without detonation.
4. Fuel vaporizes and expands in the Venturi. The expanding charge in the confined space downstream of the throat thrusts fuel/air charge into the cylinder for increased power.
5. Improved low rpm torque in 4-cylinder engines improves drivability and allows taller gearing for increased fuel economy.
6. Fuel is vaporized and thoroughly mixed even at low throttle. Consequently, high air/fuel ratios -- far above conventional induction, provides greatly improved fuel economy without sacrificing throttle response.
7. Injector fouling is reduced for propane and natural gas powered vehicles.
8. PRV cost is comparable to conventional manifold/throttle body induction.
