Internal Endurance of Fw190

I think the internal fuel endurance of the Fw 190 Should be increased.
The Fw190 A-5 should have an internal fuel endurance of at least 100min because it carries 525 litres (A-8)
and the Me 109 carries 400 litres which has a game fuel endurance of 75min. So the Fw190 carries 31% more Fuel than the Me 109.
I say at least 31% because the lower cruise speed of the Fw 190 the reduces its range below historical. I've noted, it seems distance per litre is fairly consistent between single engine fighters.
Thus the internal fuel for Fw190 Should be increase by 525/400330/298 = 45.3% to 751.453 = 109 min , what do you think?

Been down this road before. I am not messing with the a/c stats.

Fw 190 had more internal fuel but fuel consumption was higher too. Endurance should be a bit above contemporary Bf 109, not below
