     But;
         -Which doesn't necessarily make it bad or something to avoid.
          It's heat input that is going directly into ouput, not "wasted"
          energy such as friction which is tranferred to the cooling system
          anyway.Until you reach the detonation point(knock),the higher
          the heat output, the more efficient your inputs are.
     
         -Like anything else, do you think it's worth it, what's the "cost/
          benefit" analysis show (heat can be a "cost" in this case)what do
          you GIVE UP with the higher HP? (driveability, gas mileage, wife
          won't drive it, etc.)

The equation is pretty straight forward. Some one posted it this last year.
                              MORE HP = MORE HEAT
