Default GIAC!

Hi, I have 2000 Audi A4 2.8. I want to put GIAC chip. Anyone know any chips other than this one I can put in. How much will it cost to install this GIAC. Thanks

With the 2.8 you are going to see about 10 hp gain.. Some say its totaly worth it.. I think its about $300.. Check giacusa.com

People say it takes away the dead spot through lower rpm's... If thats the case then it would be worthwhile if you have the $$ to throw around..

I'd got for it, W/ the intake and exhaust, there is no more dead spot. Much more fun to drive.

Ive heard that the chip itself is about $300 or $350.. So installed your looking at $350-$400 i would guess...

NOononono... $300 for the chip and about $50 for instalation = $350-$400 max total!
Im not positive on the price for the chip. It could be $350 +$50 labor=$400 max.. It cant be any more than that out the door, or it deffinately wouldnt be worth it.
