Whats more important is the total area under the power curve. Too true!! The biggest single improvement in the performance of my car was made when we went from factory ECU (air flow meter) to after market ECU (a few other minor mods were done at the same time), top end gain was minimal (up about 15rwkw) but right smack bang in the middle of the power curve we had gained almost 45rwkw. Power was coming on earlier and right through the mid range there was a sizeable increase in power. The difference in the way the car drove was awesome, much more low down pull and more importantly much more fun. [Report message to a moderator]
