Ken, if you'll read post #20 from Keith in the thread linked above, he explains the adjustment range. It's not that broad. My point is that (for me) the raison d'etre for the APR flash is the ability of the user to easily switch between maps optimized for selected octanes, utility maps and a "back to stock" map for dealer visits. AFAIK only APR provides a product with that benefit, but sadly, I was advised not for my car. Still confused?
