Default one more question about chipping a 2000 1.8T.

I noticed on APR's website the horsepower/torque readouts for 93 octane were about +57hp and around 94lb/ft of torque.

However GIAC's site claims only ~47hp and ~50torque.

Are APRs measurments given at the crank instead of the wheels?

Are GIACs estimates given at the wheels instead of the crank?

Seems like from everything ive researched on this forum both are equally good products so it just confuses me as to why one would claim to produce so much more power than the other.
