I think this is the best possible result, because you are not going to break anything because of too much torque. Wonderful news!!!  
We have seen that woodgas makes more power than chargas before. Chuckw told us [chargas is maybe 4 MJ/m3, wood gas is maybe 6 MJ/m3, definitely not worth compressing.  
If you could get to 20 MJ/m3 like retort made ‘town gas’ it might be worth it for stationary systems, but probably not for vehicles.  
(Natural gas is 36 MJ/m3 for reference.)](http://forum.driveonwood.com/t/how-compressible-is-gas-produced-via-hydrosis-steam-hot-char-coal/6191/34)  
Does anyone know the energy density of water gas?
