I am also a Ford engineer, and I own a horse. From what I understand, the engine is run with magic. The magic flows through the IAT, into the ECM, and exits the engine in the form of carbon monoxide. The resistor will limit the flow of magic through the IAT, thus producing less CO stoichiometrically, and thus making 20+ LESS HP.
