Same RPM.. the screw just limits the opening of the throttle blade on the 18 to about 75%.. kinda like a restrictor plate.. so it was just a cheap way for Kohler to build the same engine and rate them as two different engines.. Governor must also be reset to gain full use of the extra 2 hp

Won't blow it up Lew.. just allows more air and fuel in at the time.. Won't allow any more RPM.
