Only if your present DV is not functioning properly.

no not at all, many people recommend it. By installing a chip you are increasing the boost levels and the likelyhood of your current DV failing.

i agree a chip and a upgraded DV go hand in hand. They should include a DV with a software upgrade.

Giac makes a chip, but it's only rated at like 10-15 hp. It doesn't provide nearly the benefit of the 1.8t chip.

99AudiA4q -- if you are getting a supercharger, you should be getting a chip w/the kit anyways
