hrm, looks like what your saying is that it can make more power on top and spool at nearly the same RPM …on larger motors.

I guess I’ll have to start punching in numbers and see where they fall on the maps. Even if the 30 offers a slight advantage I’ll probably keep the 28 since I already have it.
