you got me there. You're right.

Power tapers in the high-end of the Renesis because of the flow restriction of the exhaust ports.
The Renesis has a very wide power band, but it isn't going to be all at the top like a peripheral port 13b.
Once the gas velocities get really high, the right-angle turn of the exhaust ports becomes a restriction.
The high power output Renesis applications you will see in the future will make their peak tq at 6200 and hp at 7200 max.
Makes sense, what exhaust manifold does the MM turbo use?

The problem with the FD turbos are they don't flow enough air.
You can tune all day, if the air is hot coming out of the turbos (low mass) the power won't happen.

Which makes perfect sense. They are sacrificing safety either way. lol
