the first thing that popped into my head was cooler discharge temps, but after further thought I'm guessing they might be marginal at best. Typically longer runners will help TQ at lower rpms so I imagine that is probably a logical benefit. That flat top looks like a great place to set a bag of ice, thoughts?
