Default New engine not as powerful?

The new engine dosent seem as powerful as my original one. Is it because it set for a year?

Drive it for a while. I had the same problem when Sarah got her new engine from the 2001 Bonneville. After a few days the engine felt even better than the one that I lost. Your computer is adaptive to the driver so it has to "learn" how you like to drive and that takes a while.
