Romulans and Subsystem Power?

I am working on a build for my Romulan Tactical character that takes advantage of the [AMP] bonus on my Singularity Core, but even with the Plasmonic Leech and a couple of Embassy Flow Capacitor consoles I cannot get enough power to hit 75 in each. That said, I'm looking for any DOffs that provide a chance to boost subsystem power levels. I already know of the Warp Core Engineer and the Energy/Projectile Weapon DOffs, but are there any others I should be aware of?
Also, if there are no other DOffs that boost subsystem power levels, what would you fine folk recommend I do to hit 75 in all subsystems, speaking either from your own personal experience or what you've seen/heard from others. I really appreciate any tips you can offer! Thanks!

It also doesn't help that the Iconian Singularity Core (the one I use as part of the set) boosts engine power when most Warbirds already get a good bonus to engine power, LOL.
Well you may want to look into the Terran rep singularity core, it boosts all power levels, not just one or two.
There's lots of fault to that, not to mention it has to slowly build up. The fight's over before that builds up fully.
9/9 in flow caps in skill tree are pretty much standard if you use leech. An emphasis on the other skill tree attributes which give you higher base power is as helpful as well (warp core efficiency & warp core potential).
Further potent means that comes mind are:
- Sci consoles which ad [flow]. I recommend those from embassy which grand plasma explosions.
- Energy Syphon (mentioned by @luch080) preferably with the Nand’s ship trait which reduces the energy drain on weapons at the same time.
- Emergency power to subsystem boff abilities. I’d try to cycle at least two different ones using doffs that reduce CD on them.
- Supremacy ship trait from Astika
Hope this helps.

anyways, nevermind my rambling. there is a console on the valdore you can use for shields, a plasmonic leech and supremacy from the astika should be all you need with 9 in flow caps. that is assumingyou can get the astika as it is not cheap to get.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
The amount of radiation black holes evaporate due to Hawking Radiation is extremely low. And the maximum amount of radiation they can leak cannot exceed their mass. So you still don't get better mass to energy conversion than with matter/antimatter annihilation.
whats this now, a thoery from stephen hawking? and a thoery is just an unproven opinion or speculation. thats what you got to respond with? when you come back with a solid fact is upto you.

Pot meet kettle.
EDIT:
To actually contribute something to the question: Are you running emergency power bridge officer skills?
Emergency Power to Shields can be a good buff to help you keep alive, and allows you to maintain a high shield power.
Emergency Power to Weapons is favored more for the damage buff it grants independent of the energy bonus, but maybe you can experiment with that, too. Finally, I think Emergency Power to Auxilliary has its uses, though that depends strongly on how many Auxilliary related powers (Science mostly) you rely on, too.
Damage Control Engineers help with the uptime of these powers.
Oh, then the only thing we have 'proven' is that Singularity Cores spin (go down to the engine room of a Rom ship with standard interior) which A-M cores do not, which probably negates all the power advantages. Spinning is cool.
Ignorance is not bliss.
You can also see how the polaron proc packs a mean punch.
Assuming I have all those procs cranking fairly constantly, a maxed out Singularity Core (the Iconian one boosts engine power), and my Plasmonic Leech at full I can maintain the full [AMP] bonus. I'm just looking for ways to get all of it to 75 or higher without sacrificing DOff slots to do it, as my Fed/KDF characters can do the same with just the Plasmonic Leech.
