How an IO550N can turn a C206 slower?

Hey folks!
A friend owns a U206E which had the IO-550F installed. He claims his plane was capable to reach 130KIAS with that engine. Last week he decided to install an 0 SNEW IO-550N in exchange of the F, but it turned out with the plane flying barely around 105KIAS. Compressions are high, the prop is a scimitar Hartzell 82", and it has already completed the break-in but nothing changed. Any thoughts?
