Basically means more power. Has to do with valve opening/closing and eliminating overlap. Supposedly GTM is working on it. If you're familiar with Honda/Acura, the Hondata ECU reflash basically turned the RSX-S into a different car. Added power, advanced VTEC engagement, higher rev limit, etc. It'll be a great tuning addition if/when it's completed. General NA ECU "tunes" don't do much unless you have lots of breather mods and need to smooth out the AFR. It's not like a turbo car where you spend $500 on a "tune" and get 70 hp from it.
