Yet, in SH4, we have 20,000 flood rates, for a much slower dive time. I do not understand that, so i figure the answer is probably in other variables, or the game just handles it's computations completly different, which is most likely the case.

This is normal Ducimus. I'll see if I can find the link later, but I seem to remember the US boat's normal dive speeds (not riding the vents or some other trick) were typically 15-20 seconds+ longer than the U-boats. Fastest diving boats in WWII where actually British boats. (must be the rum
)
So, no reason to worry about trying to get a US boat to match the normal dive speed of a U-boat.
