Amuse announced a few year or so ago that they found a new way of controlling the ignition timing/knock control and found more HP from the tune.. and they call their full exhaust + ecu combo a 400hp (flywheel) package!

Our tunes for NA cars are extremely mild, true, you can advance the timing more but when testing on a customer's car our intention is never to push the limits.
I guess the philosophy there is to squeeze a little more out of the engine without any risks. I may not have all the answers to your questions, I will do my best to find out. Remember, I'm just a salesman here!
