Am I wrong?

I can't speak for anyone else's results, but my gains from the G3 appear to have been pretty even across the rpm range.

Before:

After:.

It's a little tough to tell because they're not overlaid. Plus it doesn't help that the increments on the y-axis aren't the same. But pick any point on the rpm band. Take 5k rpm, for instance. On the before graph, I was making around 210, maybe? Defn. less than 225 whp. On the after graph, at 5k I'm clearly above 225 whp, it looks somewhere around 233 whp. Even as low as 3500 rpm. On the before graph I'm making just a hair shy of 150 whp. On the after graph, I'm making around 165 whp at 3500 rpm.
