Thread: Chip Which?

  1. #1

    Chip Which?

    Hey there AUDI junkies. I'm new to the Audi family and new here too. Got an '02 1.8T A4.

    Just wondering which chip to get. Can anyone tell me the differences between the chips? Is one more aggressive than another?

    Leaning toward APR or GAIC but not sure what would be best. I am worried about loosing and twitching boost that I have heard can happen as you climb through the RPMs.

    Any info would be great.

    Do a search over at the audiworld forum. You'll find tons of information there. You might also want to get a seperate ECU so your dealer won't hassle you when you bring you car in for warranty service.

    They all make great products

    I would lean away from APR since their support is poor in SoCal, except they got a new dealer, ingolstat west ... check this link for more info, http://www.socaleuro.com/index.php?page=links

    GIAC and Revo also are awesome

    either way, id recommend whoever dealer is near you and treats you right because all the chips are top notch
