Don't take this as though I'm pointing the finger at anyone... But Automotivebreath has done extensive testing on the Singh Grooves and has had numerous documented successes. They may not be tested on a before-and-after-dyno-run, but the race track has proven to be almost as accurate. Read through the forum, specifically the topics regarding combustion efficiency, in-cylinder turbulence and burn rate, and a few others... You'll notice that he's gotten way more than a couple foot pounds.
