I suspect that u are Bang on right there R1NGA - and I do know that there were a lot of issues with the very first prototype cars being able to handle the sheer power of the mighty SnS engine.
For my part I have enough power - and I am a bit of a power freak - well I should say WAS with my bikes!
But I find the Mog is just right for my needs! Agree too that there would be easy power gains from better breathing/mapping etc and possibly quite cheap to do too.
