Speed (rpm)<br />
• FTP Drive Cycle typically centered about the ~25% load point for NA engines.<br />
• For a naturally aspirated engine best BTE is typically about 80% load.<br />
• GTDI greatly exp<strong>and</strong>s the best BTE isl<strong>and</strong>.<br />
• Downsizing will move the GTDI best BTE isl<strong>and</strong> to a useable range.
