Very much so. Unless you get an engine used in a few variants that is just detuned (N53 BMW engine comes to mind, gains over 40bhp in a 325i), gains on a standard N/A engine are never massive.
I'd love to have a play with some of the new VW diesels. One of the companies I work with have just finished developing their tune for the 3.0TDi used in the new A7 using one of Bosch's latest ECUs. Stock power 218bhp/500Nm, tuned 320bhp/680Nm.
Turbo power ftw!
