Oh my, you're complaining about my comprehension?
You missed that little snippet at the beginning od my post which read:

Now, back on topic. As per my original comment, if you are going to use a pre-programmed map, you need to make damn sure that you've kept almost every accessory, bolt on and internal as per the test-mule. Otherwise the chip is going to give substandard results.
About two years ago, I was running around with a JDM ITR 4-1 header and a few other miscellaneous bits and pieces. After a few hours tuning I ended up with 115kw ATW, strong mid-range, excellent transient throttle response and great fuel economy, basically, all of the pro's and none of the con's. I sold the JDM header and went temporarily back to AUDM ITR header... I immediately felt a monumental loss in power and driveability, not to mention a large increase in fuel consumption. Out of interest, I went back to the (same) dyno spun the car up. 91kw ATW was the result (this is actually less power than the stock ECU). Thats a legitimate loss of 24kw at the wheels by changing one part of the motor to something outside of what the map was written for. Dave re-tuned the car on the AUDM header and we got it back to around 105kw.
Now liken the above situation to a tuned J's/Spoon/Jun ECU optimised for whatever they tuned the car on, and any gimp can see where this is headed.
