has anyone tried turning up the torque bolt on the side of the intake manifold????

I was reading the manual and found this...



Has anyone tried adjusting the torque control setting?? I wonder if it would help get us off the line faster/better...

Anyone??

not exactly on the intake manifold, but I'm not too savvy about engines....... if anyone has tried it please let me know. I think this might be a hidden mod feature nissan is keeping from us!!
