I think what you actually do with that screw is alter the injection timing some and its factory set to be well within safe margins .
So when you alter it your not so much turning up the fuel but rather minutely increasing the time fuel can be injected = more fuel . There's no exact science to it but i suppose if fuel is being injected at entirely the wrong time it will just drip out of your exhaust , too much at the right time and you get a runaway engine so its a touchy feely thing . More fuel does not equal more power if it can't be burnt .
An efficient burn will always produce more power hence these new sewing machine engines they use in cars nowadays are crazy powerful , they are tuned to self destruct and then they add a computer to prevent self destruction .
Works great until until a worthless spec of solder breaks 3 days after warranty expires and you need a new car .
