i have been checkin up about some chips and most people say the giac is one of the best but im lookin athe apr ones and i think they got ones that just plug in but i dont know what the giac one you have to send your ecu in, which ones are direct port, can some one fill me in on the installation of these chips thanks alot

 

wut year is ur car
if u have a b5 u have to get it sodered unless u are drive by wire
but if a B6 u just have toreflash which is plug and play

 

all chips should be installed at the dealer....
either very small soldering or a flash-loading will have to be done

make your decision of APR vs. GIAC based on where the closest dealer is would be my suggestion....
...keep in mind if your car starts acting up you don't want to have to drive 100 miles to get the last people who worked on it to take a look at it..



where in Jersey are you ??

AWE Tuning does GIAC and i'd highly recommend them.
they're just north of Philly in Willow Grove

i havea b6 02 1.8t

 

its gonna be a plug and play just find a dealer close to u and ur set
dont for get u have to upgrade the DV

 

how much does the dealers charge and how long does it take, do i have to upgrage the dv right away or can i wait like 2 weeks

 

good point.... do that at the same time while you're in there

 

an honest person wouldn't charge anything mmore than 30 mins. to throw a dv in

 

it doesnt take long to have them do the chip does it?

 

i would do it rite away and chippin takes like about 15mins
