It would be related to the spark timing that is tolerable as to where to best position the leading spark plug. Would not loose too much sleep over it, Mazda are smart enough cuuuuuunnnnnttts and power and being efficient go hand in hand for the application.

thank you kind sir.. im happy you replied mate.. cheers
