Yes, I think that if you changed the THHN gauge that you are using will make a difference. How much, I would have to duplicate to be sure. The point is you are terminating at 14ga, not 12ga. So if there is a bit of performance gain wouldn't be worth it to try?
I know what you are saying regards to some AC male plugs only being able to accept 10ga. I recommend taking 10ga. from the plug and branching out to 12ga to each TI-Shield termination. If you do not have any 10ga. wire which is really inexpensive to purchase, use two 12ga. to simulate the 10ga.
Try it and let me know what happens. Based on my experiments, you should hear a difference.
