APR describes the gains for this tune as wheel-horsepower gains. Total output and maximum gain are separate figures; maximum gain is not the difference between the two peak horsepower ratings.
Results vary with fuel quality, vehicle condition, hardware and test conditions. Use the fuel required by the installed APR calibration; verify the exact ECU application before installation.
