Fishu, check the horsepower of the F4U and the Me109G10.
Both are around 2,000hp depending on WEP/non-WEP, and should therefore produce something in the same range of torque. (Yes I know there are alot of other factors involved, but it works for a rough demonstration)
Now look up the wingspan of each, plus the normal loaded weight.
Now lets talk physics. So if you think of the wing of the plane as a lever and the rest of the plane as a rock that has to be moved (or held steady in this case).
A long lever produces more force to move the rock(or hold the rock from moving) and a heavier rock takes more force to start moving (force from the engine torque).
So the 109G10 has a shorter wing in relation to the F4U in the first place, so when you remove half of it, in comparison produces less force to keep it steady. Also the G10 weighs less, so it takes less torque force from the engine to make it begin to move (and the G10 to F4U torque relationship is about equal).
In other words, its working exactly the way its suppose to be.
