Phatdaddy, I'm with you on this one I think. I don't see much difference between the 2. But to me it looks like tus is doing better overall. Using their figures:

tsu gets 44 MPH @ 5100 RPM using 2.32 MPG
ssir gets 42 MPH @ 6000 RPM using 2.4 MPG

So Tsubaki is going 2 mph faster while using less gas and less rpm (wear and tear) on his engine.

Ssiredfish, if it were me I'd put a 19P on your engine and give it another shot. I think you would definately benefit from the added pitch.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
