I don't think it's unreasonable to think that particularly skilled torpedomen would be able to tweak the standard detonator settings to make them more effective: better influence detection, better depth-keeping, a more (or less) sensitive contact detonator which causes it to blow at just the right time to inflict maximum damage.
It's not as if the torpedos issued to the submariners couldn't be improved upon in any way, and there's a lot more to torpedo damage than merely the size of the warhead. (It's how you use it that counts.)
