The engine is detuned, and in cases like that where the engine output is purposely reduced, the hp and torque curves aren't conventional... which is the case whenever you see an engine where the curve is perfectly flat and the marketing material says X lb-ft from abcd rpm to wxyz rpm.


Back to the comparison... it'll probably be similarly quick as far as acceleration times go, but it'll feel faster in most situations since it has a lot more torque.
