I was thinking the same thing.

I can see how too much plenum area could cause fuel droplets, poor idle, poor throttle response, etc. I do not understand how it could cause low torque in the mid rpm range. I would think the runner length and area would be the biggest factor, as far as the intake manifold goes.

I do not know many things and would be pleased to learn more on this subject.
