When you see our "estimated gains," they always represent dyno-proven, tune-only gains for that vehicle. We practice an "under-promise and over-deliver" philosophy-- in other words, we advertise conservative estimates.

Gains depend on several factors:

1. The fuel type your tune is written for (and if applicable, the fuel you're running on that tune).

   1. With Ethanol: Maximum possible gains are always achieved on an e50 or e85 tune (compatibility of stock fuel system varies by vehicle).

   2. Without Ethanol: Tunes written specifically for 93 Octane will provide greatest possible gains on pump gas. Selecting a more flexible fuel type, like "91 Octane" will not achieve the same results, even if the highest octane fuel is used.

2. The tuning goal or other specific requests you've made for your custom tune.

   1. A RACE goal achieves max gains for your selected fuel type (100% of max gains) .

   2. A PERFORMANCE goal will provide ~90% of max gains for WHP & WTQ.

   3. A DAILY DRIVER goal will provide ~60% of max gains for WHP & WTQ.

   4. A TOW goal will provide ~40% of max WHP gains, and ~60% of WTQ gains (this is the 'odd one out' and can vary greatly depending on your specs).

   5. For DMS Tunes ONLY: A "Stock+" goal provides no change in power - this is the STOCK tune.

3. Which modifications you have on the vehicle, if any.

   1. Again, modifications are never accounted for in our estimated gains.

   2. To read more about which modifications we recommend and why, please see Recommended Upgrades & Modifications.

Please note: Fuel quality and atmospheric conditions impact gains in ways that we cannot anticipate. Running a "pump gas" with less than 10% ethanol content will produce less power than advertised. Running a "pump gas" with more than 10% ethanol can produce more power than advertised.
