According to the discussion here http://forum.12oclockhigh.net/showthread.php?t=5585

the DB601Aa was used for the fighter-bomber 109's, Do215 and so.

That's not really what is being said in that forum at all

Did you have a look at the info I've sent you via PM?

One thing i have tested, FTH for the Bf109 in the sim is 4.500m, so it must be the DB601A1 modeled.

It's the A1. There's an Aa in the game as well but no aircraft use it currently. Both the Aa and A1 have 1020 PS listed as their "maximal power" ratings, whatever that means.

RL data I've seen says that at 2400 RPM at FTH the BD601A will make 1020 PS but the Aa should be higher, and both should be much higher at sea level. Possibly this is the reason.
