P8 can run ALS and water injection and a coil pack out of the box as well as having adaptive fueling which corrects for deviations in fueling caused by wear and tear.

L8 can now do almost as much as P8 due to MSD's developments.

best to ring them and ask, about 400-500 but then you have to have a map

I don't think NMS does map the P8 but I know they can map the L8 and L6.

MSD, Ahmed and maybe Turbosystems can map the P8.
