160kw vs 110kw inverter recommendations

So as far as I understand the 160kw inverter isn't as well supported at present with the zombieverter or OI, I'm looking for an easy conversion path but I've also found a 2019 leaf being broken and agreed a good price for the motor stack but it's the 2019 e+ so I'm slightly reluctant to get it only to have a headache having to get it running.

I've read what little there is on the forums that I could find but I'm hoping others might have more knowledge on the subject than I do or be able to point me in the right direction. Thanks

from my understanding is that no one yet has got the full 160kw (however i could be wrong now), from memory i think its only 125kw at present.
The difference between the 160kw and the 110kw, is that the maximum torque cure is extended a little further, before it goes into constant power region to protect the batteries.

some information i do know about ...

Nissan material suggests the E+ has 340nm rather than 320nm of the 110kw variant, so its a bit more torque as well as the extended curve.

I've always wondered how extending the curve is achieved.. is it boosting voltage?

Not sure it's extending as such, think it's more reducing the limiting that is there to protect the battery on the lower power inverters.
