thinking bout a experiment

i got my Power FC + cmdr today along with some new plugs and wires. we used the base maps so no real tunning yet but the differance was amazing. well at least to me. LOL

Full Stock with Factory tune was:
191 rwhp and 168 ftlbs torque

Power FC, Spark Plugs + Wires:
210rwhp and 195 ftlbs torque

So just replacing some electronics and a new ECU i have a gain of 19 rwhp and 27 ftlbs of torque. So this has kind of got me wondering has to just how much gain i can get JUST by replacing or upgrading my old and tired electronics.

You got the power out of the tune, not because of the new electronics.

cant be that much better. im still way rich. the only thing i can see it doing is removing what ever limiters that the stock ECU was putting on the engine.

eather way it was a combination of the new parts not just limited to 1 particular part.
