Hey no need to resort to personal attacks here.

Nobody is saying the ej255 doesn't make more torque down low than the ej205. What we're saying is that HP is a function of Torque. You can't escape the mathematical relationship between torque and HP. If an engine produces more torque at a specific engine speed, it also produces more HP at the speed. Take a look at some dyno charts for the ej255 and ej205 and show me that the formula doesn't hold true.
