You've stated this before, I don't know what makes you think you can just "tune" the power back here. Modifying timing and AFR any further than what has already been done are not going to get any more power out of this, with or without the manifold. Regardless, even if there was no top end loss, there are no gains to speak of (~5 tq for 600rpm)
