JDCrowe didn't u say u had a Honda before that is why your going to think Neuspeed is a reputable tuner like myself I wasn't to sure either my last car was a GSR integra so I was also more famular with those brands put these brand names giac and apr are very reputable tuners with the Audi's also giac is Garrett same company and if you haven't heard of garrett i don't know what to tell u

i dont think i said that i had a honda before, but as a matter of fact, i did.

good point , that probobly is why i feel that neuspeed is a more reputable brand, good point.

Neuspeed's home page = choose car Honda/Acura or VW/Audi
GIAC & APR = VW/ Audi / Porche

GOOD CALL

Well said neil, if yout only going to do the chip for engine mods I think the giac is the best. It is very agressive and is pretty fast. With my ko4 set it works very well, it did atleast.

thanx for the input

i could also use some help picking out some tires, see post - "snow tires for 17" rims?"
thanx

oh, and you now have me leaning towards the GIAC chip, but i dont see a price on their website, is it still around $400?
APR's site seems much more user friendly, i like theirs better.

still kepp the input flowing, it's all appriciated.
