Default R's extra 25 horses...

With this year's SVR no longer avail, Jaguar raised the R's hp from 550 to 575.
Specifically just engine-wise, does anyone knows how they got those extra 25 ponys?
Did they make physical changes with new parts or design, or is it just recalibration & tuning?

Quick google, I only saw: "...Other V8 upgrades include recalibrated valves inside each damper and control algorithms in order to improve low-speed comfort and high-speed control..."
