Thanks Dropspeed:
Now we are getting a bit closer : reduced demands on the engine (no loss from a hydro pump as the assistance to steering is replaced by servos) plus a freer flowing exhaust.
Still not enough to account for three secs, yet as newb pointed out, it all adds up.
Yet I feel there is something amiss.
Safe driving!
