Engine designer WiKi?

Hello!
I really like this game, but I was thinking about some web-tutorial or something like this for the engine designer. I like the in-game videos and the notes for all parameters (for example Compression - higher : More power, better economy, Lower : Lower power, lower RON) but i think it would be nice to make some wiki pages with more detailed information about the effects of changes in game.
It would be helpful for everyone who is trying to solve some problem with engine designer, like "I want to move the maximum of torque lower, but move maximum of power higher" or "How to increase economy of my engine without loosing power/torque characteristics".
And one really big theme should be turbocharging, which still is for me almost "magic".
What do you think, would it be helpful?

One of our Beta testers is writing a manual for the engine designer, so that should serve the purpose nicely. Last time I read it , it was pretty comprehensive already. :)

Probably not much has happened since the last time you have read it, Andrew. :) I'll talk to Robert (Killrob) about how we proceed with the tutorial. It's definitely time to work on that again!
