Default From Piper Chieftan manual regarding engines

Colemill has always been good at grey area performance changes.
Typically, when converting to a higher HP engine, they de-rate the
install by reduced "redlines" in theory reflecting what is comparable
to the original install max TO HP. Then they put in a neat little
statement something along the lines of the aircraft will meet or exceed
the original performance numbers.
