Turbo guys just turn up the boost, that's too easy for more power and faster.
Track guy increase their skill, handling, braking and drive faster.

We scrape for 1-2HP, here and there

Air scoops, carbon delete, filter panel, silicone elbow, synthetic oil, exhaust, etc.
Any individually only 1-2HP, but when done together, +10HP.

Like picking up and collecting pennies...one at a time. I'll take a 'million' of them. Ha

I can't speak for any power gains, but I do log my gas mileage. I noticed an increase of ~1 mpg after fitting scoops.
