I am happy to concede that some automotive engines may have undergone
durability testing that is more severe than that required for aviation
engines. However, it is overstating the case significantly to say that
these automotive engine tests exceed by 400% the power output required
for the aviation engine tests.

The aviation engine tests have many sections at 100% power. If you
exceed that by 400% you have to run at 500% power.

It doesn't help your credibility to state "facts" that are obviously
wrong. Type a bit slower next time.
