Does this mean I still have 20% power remaining in the engine that is not getting fully optimized? Or is 100% load not equal to 100% acceleration? Maybe an outside mind could resolve this for me?
I'm sure Bill can, not sure of anyone else's "outside mind". I imagine you are seeing the effect of a torque reduction strategy though. Possibly, to reduce strain on the transmission? But, I'm only guessing.
