Maybe nothing dramatic as putting a piston through the block, but possibly toss a CEL that tells the dealer your messing with voided warranty territory? Deep pockets allow to test with options, but still doesn't mean throw caution in the wind. We've seen it before with the pullies. Why develop a pulley to stack when there is no proven reliable safe results. Did that stop anyone from trying. Heck no. For $100 and 25hp you bet the list will be 40 deep. There are those that log and those that trust. The 40 deep will be the trusting. Code3 clients line up.
I would never attempt to hack together some crap just to see if works. Anything that goes on my would be thoroughly researched, documented and tested before I try it. I'm not saying it will work, I'm not an engineer. I have enough professional engine builders/tuners/egineers in my phone's contact list to help me out. I would have tapped them before now if I weren't recovering from a financial meltdown... I just don't have the $$$ to experiement like that at this point.
