We improve throttle response and broaden the tq band, so that those squirrels are running over a wider range! We try to tune cars to give them a more sporting feel. In this application we have managed to improve fuel economy as well. So that's a nice bonus.
I am not impressed. Poke me and I'll tell you why.

Aw shucks. 500 hours to reprogram an ECU for 7-10 hp? $700?
