Yeah I accomplished the rare feat of having more torque than horsepower in a rotary! (even if only by a few tenths)
Time to start looking at ways to improve the top end.

where have you been living? anything that sheds rotating mass is going to free up power.

Lets make this simple analogy... If you were spinning a 50# kid around on a merry-go-round, would it be easier to get the kid "up to speed" than spinning a 400# fat *** man?? Yes it would be easier to move the 50# kid.
Does it mean you all of a sudden have more energy (power) because you are able to move the 50# kid faster??? NO... you are still the same.
