ORIGINAL: what?

if youre quattro giac, if your fwd maybe apr? There is no punching it in first with fwd and giac...just alot of skip skipppp skip of the tires trying to grab the road.
Maybe you need new tires. I dont normally lose much if any traction punching it off the line in first on dry pavement. Evena 3krpm launchat the track didnt make me lose much traction. But I do understand your point. GIAC is a tq factory and makes delivering power in turns, etc. a little less safe and enjoyable without quattro. When it comes to rain and snow, forget about it.

i'm gonna take Chaos's advice on the GIAC chip,and go to AutoDreams,next week,really can't believe that a chip will give you 30 hp and about the same amount of torque...if that works,that's the best thing that's gonna to happen to me since i got my audi
Its +40-50 hp and + 50-80 tq.
