My ES-P has a TSIO-550E with GAMI injectors, and I’ve recently been thro= ugh advanced pilot's web LOP course. But I'm still unclear on at least one point.

My TSIO-550E will happily run at 17.5 GPH at a MP of any of 30, 31, 32 (amo= ng others). All cylinders remain below 380, and TIT is reasonable.

Is it 73% power no matter how I set the MP, so long as temperatures remain = in control? If that's true, why would I select one MP over another (realizing I can't run wide open throttle)?
