The only thing I can think of is that even at full tilt, the MMM isn't sending the full PWM signal to the motors. It can't be voltage drop or there would be a ton of heat on the ESC. Don't know if this was mentioned, but you should reclaibrate your radio to the ESC each time is is swapped. It's possible that the MMM isn't seeing the full throttle it expects at WOT, so it's really running at 95% instead of 100%. When calibrating a radio, I set the EPA to 100%, calibrate the ESC/radio, then boost the EPA to ~110% to ensure the ESC gets to full throttle and is unaffected by some throttle potentiometer "drift".
