ECU Remap question

[V8ftw]

Hi All, just joined

Was looking at an upgrade to try to claw back some lost horses a I have a UK Dark Horse with 450hp. Not ready to spend 10K+ on a charger ertc right now and I saw this:

But, it seems almost too good to be true, I mean an extra 82hp with no hardware?

Would love to hear some opinions.

I would love to hear opinions as well, remote for me​

Is the UK DH nerfed by hardware changes or software configurations?

Gas particulate filter, screwy exhaust changes, and lower octane fuel.

Just read the entire thing.

They claim no hardware changes. No way are you going to get 80hp from 'just a tune'.

Agreed. I was just answering Dark Sprite's question as to why the lower horsepower rating in European cars.

A bunch of the horsepower difference can be made up without any tuning or hardware changes just by using 98 at the pump, which is more equivalent to 93 here in the US. The article I linked explains why this matters.
