The problem is you sacrifice a bit of Top End to gain in the Bottom. Sure you might not have 305hp vs 298hp but the area under the curve from before/after you gain 10+ hp in the midrange which is where its actually used. This is a plus to me. Power isn't just about the number you End at. It's about how you get there.
Makes sense... Now tell me how to blow flames out the exhaust lol
