Considering that Peter has been with us since the early days, he is well aware of the spirit of Team-BHP. I am sure he has no problem outlining the highs / lows of the box to maintain the objective nature of Team-BHP.

V1p3r, Tata have intentionally restricted the power output of the common-rail Indica / Indigo due to concerns over the extra torque load on the gearbox.
