Or even just camshaft timing?
I think this conversation is going off on a tangent now as you seem to be looking at an ECU calibration as a supermarket product like "Are they beans, tomatoes or peas? who not just label them?" instead of the infinitely variable product which it really is when you get into modifying cars and actually writing the calibration live.
This is what I'd like to have offered to me as an option if I were the customer, but it looks like it's never offered. One minute you say you know nothing about it, next you have the entire calibration right infront of you!
Being able to easily compare calibration differences is a very useful tool.
