Default 2.8 chiped anyone have one?

I have a 99 2.8 with a 5-speed and have seen alot of chips for the 1.8t but not to many for the 2.8. Does anyone have a chip in a 2.8 or know of any good chips to put in one?

chipping a 2.8 really isnt worth it, as you will only see a 10-15hp gain for about $500... compared to nearly 5x the gain with a 1.8t chip

apg96 was one of the few ppl that chipped his 5spd 2.8 and i think it basically got rid of the flat spots on the rpm range and made the throttle a little more responsive

Yeah i noticed that the 1.8 does get a bigger increase in hp range and the 2.8 looks like it isnt even worth chipping, but i do hate that loss of power between 3-4 rpm range.
