What's wrong with the game's top speeds? (and, if they're wrong, can they be fixed by changing the relevant .cfg file somewhere? if so, where?)

[edit] I went in to see if I could answer my own question about where the top speeds are set in the game, and I saw where the individual sub type .cfg files do list what seem to be the intended top speeds, which appeared to be correct at least for the TypeVIIC (only one I really checked) based on the figures at u-boat.net, but then I noticed in game that I was actually getting 18-19 knots at full ahead even though the .cfg file said 17. Of course, u-boat.net said 17.7, so rounding up would be 18 I suppose, and I do have the upgraded engines, which I suppose could eke out another 1 knot, so maybe this is still OK. So I'm still curious - what's wrong with the game's top speeds?
