    Simple. It is using tables that we don't have access to. You didn't think you're seeing EVERYTHING did you?

    Also some tuners will use limiters that EFILIVE doesn't use, and simply max them out. Some tuners do things differently than EFILIVE does when they use there software to crack the ECM code. Many times there method doesn't really give much more HP, but makes it feel that way by taking away your useable throttle and making it touchy which many times gives you the allusion of having a big tune when in reality it is just poor tuning.

    Plus it's not an issue of mm3. Remember mm3 is just a value like X. We tell the ECM the amount of duration and pressure needed for a given mm3. So Smarty modifies duration & pressure tables we aren't seeing.

    We know it truly does this and not just changes the feel. Many if us have put Smarty tunes on dynos. They make power for sure. Plus you can see what it's commanding if you log the data.
