I can see the air lag. Look at a windmill blade. Big, slow turning, lagging, look at my watch, where is the air? So right there is one big, slow, in the way = Lag-ability-get-going-slowpoke!
With the smaller spooling, it's spinning quicker, moving air that much faster, no lag lustear, your eyes are drying up lift already! 
IMO, I think it was that easy a change from spooling to who is fooling with the word lag vs. the smaller spool? Case closed. Especially if the blades are pitch-able... Spool ohlay shit you add that moveable blade vs. a fixed blade. Extra-Linear is the word, no?
This is Triple-H, INN MO.
1. Heavy = Not pitch-able in turns. Yes you can, but not as sporty. This is giving up here and there things for this thing. That better gas mileage is a plus. The extra HP is a given and mileage drops, meaning, is the other swap for swap you keep thinking about it.
2. Heat = That is a given. To exploit HP, you need to make heat. To make lots of power, you are going to feel the heat. This too is the other trade-off. You are going to carry metal parts that will give off heat when not spooling for HP. Adding the heavy-heat comes that last part of the H'ing, aching part.
3. Have to Have it = Big buck commitment. This is going to be one reach around every time you have a 'working to clear glitch.' That means, who setup what, how long will it last is the old saying, "If you want it done right, do it yourself." Have is the have the ability to clean any glitch comes your way, or pay to have it solved. So if you are saying you are not that mechanically inclined, but your wallet is, do not end with say for argument sake, 7k is all it will take.
I think there comes this bag of 'glitches.' You have one guy in development mode to deliver a bolt on system? If I read that correctly, he's more the 'deglitcher' man. He is doing what one would do is hand build the one off is begin to bolt the parts on, and as you go, you reach around to have this or that glitch solved to finish the assembly.
I'm just saying, there are things down the road that may crack, a stress was not addressed the first time. Say something like that is the argument. Another would be a 50/50 scenario like Romes vs. 1bad. Whereas 1bad had his done. And with that said, his turbo, 'done in an engine.' So there too is 'glitch setup' and it's not just some plug and play kind of reach around. You may sacrifice the bike is that commitment too.
Like you said, would you put that kind of money into the bike, your deal, your reach around loss; do not expect someone to buy your worn out; 'why did you install one in the first place is not flog the puppy and you want how much?' Again, put yourself on the receiving end of the buy, you are looking at an old bike, maybe a turbo that needs a freshening up or say they are bulletproof and need nothing until it lets loose and now fix it. So, am I going to put in that much money to match the price of a new bike that has more development, more power a few years down the road, now turbo that and yours is more the slow loser at the track.
I'd more look at the turbo as a chunk you may not get half back from the parts [is parts] alone, let alone you try to add all the labor cost it took to reach around, have the glitches solved and all that... IF ... You are not on the wrench and socket end of it.
