If you look at the shapes of the MAFv lines you will see the difference and how it reflect the power curves. While your log does not show much of a "dip" it does not climb as rapidly at the mid range as my log. After that, 5000~redline, I'd say it's pretty much a wash.

As nice as some of these UEL perform on top of minimal piping to radiate heat under the hood, not to mention cost effectiveness, I prefer the balance of EL headers left and right banks.

Yeah I can see what you're talking about in the MAFv comparison. I was actually debating whether to sell my UEL for a certain EL 4-2-1 long tube, but ultimately I just love the UEL sound.

I'm probably giving up torque in the midrange but I've made my peace with that lol.
