Dude, in the real world 35 HP is a lot from just plugging something in and pushing a few buttons.In the Drag racing world especially the Stock & Super Stock classes their are people that would kiss your bare *** for 35 HP for $400.00. They will spend $1000.00's of dollars for 5-10 HP. So yes The HP & torque these programmers give is a deal...

Really good point.

Another way to look at it, who wouldn't want an 11% increase for $400?

You would notice it!

The horsepower you probably wouldn't notice, unless you were on the drag strip and could top out your truck. Torque is where you feel the power. That's gonna be what gets your jollies off when you leave a stoplight.
