Default GIAC FX In!

Finally! I got my GIAC FX and injectors in today. All I can say is damn! the power delivery on this thing now is so smooth compared to the APR programming.

There is also a buttload of power download, it was well worth the money. If anyone is getting bored with their regular chip, the injectors are def a nice upgrade.

Poopie went for a ride with me, I'm sure he'll have some impartial input too heh.

I switched over to GIAC because I've been doing and will continue doing a bunch of work at AWE, so it made sense to switch over to GIAC since anything I get from now on will be from them.

GT28R and 355MM Brembos and coilovers! will be coming soon, within a couple months probably

Listen, I understand that you have made the switch over to GIAC from APR and if you're happy - I'm happy.

But for someone who's only modification to my car will be a chip, a performance air filter, and possibly a Diverter valve......I have to understand the difference from someone that has owned both chips.

Could you please explain in explicit detail how they perform differently?
Like Denzel Washington said, "explain it to me like I was a 5yr old"

Which one has:
1. Better Low-end power?
2. More "grunt"?
3. Quicker response?
4. Longer powerband?
5. Smoother acceleration? (Although you already answered this, now that I think about it)
6. Better software features?

These are the things that come to mind - if there are other things to consider for a future owner - PLEASE list them.

Thank you!!

(And no.....I won't be able to arrange a truck from Philly in time for the GTG - heh heh)
