RE: Which Chip to choose
I am planning on chipping(flashing) my 2.OT in future as well.... i heard APR is the most popular out there, it gives a more linear power curve overall.
GIAC gives alot of low end torque and die out @ high rpm. That's all I have read from forum.
but you can't go wrong with ARP or GIAC. But just buy whichever dealer is closest to you, can't go wrong with any of them.

I just got my APR 93 octane chip installed today and by far it is a great product, smooth transition, but it really kicks when you want it too, I love BOOST!!! Test Pipe and APR software for the Test pipe goin in next week

I don't know HOW many times I've posted this, but here goes once again......
They all make comparable products, but enough real-world results and guinea pigs have basically kind of confirmed which are the best for each model.
B5 = GIAC
B6 = REVO, close second to APR.
B7 = APR, close second tie goes to REVO and GIAC.
IMHO.
.....As a matter of fact, I'm going to make it my signature from now one.
Sick of posting it.
If anyone would like to join my crusade and add it to their signature, feel free.
