| Makes/lets (your) horses run
Explanation:
Horses are associated with the power of engines, so I guess that everyone should understand.Is it about motor oil or some other chemical stuff improving the performance of engines?
If it's about a powerful new engine itself I would use a phrase like "And you will/can hear (your) horses run".
Does this, somehow, inspire you?
