I wonder.... if it's a Euro vs US version.... and I wonder if it's BECAUSE of those charcoal filters?

I don't think a 7hp increase is out of the question, when you consider you're removing half the airflow restriction.
The 530 hp rating is the German/EU 'PS' metric horsepower equivalent to US 523 hp.
