Also, I wonder if the whole "sounds like its working harder" is because of exhaust drone? I remember my Injen droned terribly around 3.5-4.5k RPM.

But the powerband is just a shift away.
The working harder sound seems to just be resonation. This engine sounds like a lawnmower between 2500 and 3500. Drives me nuts. But at the same time it motivates me to keep the revs down unlike any other car I've ever owned where it's so smooth and quiet that it's easy to creep up to 4k for miles and not even notice.
