Agreed, that’s exactly what it looks like which is likely going to be a bummer for those who love low rpm TQ and/or a linear power curve. Personally I don’t care much at sub 3k TQ but I do care about throttle response within the power band and on/off throttle behavior. If the low compression ratio make that significantly softer than the S55 it’s not something I’ll be happy about.
