UKDub's car made what I'd call 'the right kind of figures'. I don't want to comment on his APR reading, I don't see it can ever be accepted as fair given the circumstances, even though I suspect it was.
Here's my stage2 REVO graph from when Awesome was still an APR dealer. Save for a bit less torque because I was running a decat, it is pretty much the same. Timing pull you'd expect as the fan doesn't replicate real airflow, so intake temps would have been creeping I'd expect.
I don't see an aggressive spike on my graph, it didn't drive like that either. It was set up by Mike at Votex in Congleton, an unassuming and 'not on the scene' dealer... but the only place I trust. My car ran faultless for years, my 2 previous cars running REVO, totalling around 140k miles between all 3 likewise.
A common misconception is the throttle mapping giving the illusion of aggression, if you prefer a linear map, then simply ask for one, they will gladly oblige. I found it much more useful for track work.
This is a stage 2 APR K03 car, again from when Awesome were APR dealers. I know the owner, it was pretty much identical to mine in terms of upgrades.
Big spike, significantly more torque than both mine and UKDubs - All this talk of "we map to protect...." hmmm...
