new 524k no power

my company bought a brand new JD 524k. All the bells and whistles, its a wimp compare to the older machines. I went though the settings in "service" mode, nothing changed. Has anyone experienced the same? Is there a solution? thanks friends.:usa

    I have a customer with a 2011 544k, no emissions. They purchased a new 624k with all the emissions & yes the older one will run circles around it. I'm guessing it has to do with fuel control for emissions, old one smokes when you step on throttle, new one does not. Much slower throttle response with emission package.
