Here's what relative rear wheel hp and torque should look like:

This shows perfectly that the motor should be similarly rev-happy as the FA20
Another good indicator is that the stroke (86mm) was unchanged, and only the bore enlarged (86mm>92mm). Typically engines with larger bore/stroke ratios like revving more than ones with lower bore/stroke ratios.
