You will notice a bit more zip,not much but the engine will be a bit more eager to rev.
WVO and biodiesel both have LESS ENERGY CONTENT per kg or liter, so it is not really possible to make more power using it. Most any effect is placebo or some minor effect due to some feel that cannot really be there.

Have any dyno runs to show more power on WVO?
