Specially when they're talking not about a Yak-3U or anything, but just the original Yak-3 (The basic simple one that I personally prefer) which had a real world Soviet VK-105PF-2. No where in my books on Yaks, is there a mention of a VK-107PF-2 engine or anything.
I could have spent my whole life believing in the vk-107pf-2 engine, if I had ever heard of it. Now if anyone ever says "vk-107pf-2 engine" I will know they're full of crap

Maybe you should fix the wikipedia, the fix will stick since you've got a reference

Ok so the ww2 yak-3 could only do 650... but I can't hit 650 in BOP either. Seems to top out at about 550 for me. Low altitude, of course, could it go faster higher up? I've looked at e/m charts but not altitude performance charts
