Hmm that doesn't make any sense. Their website basically suggests that they have tuning for ANY B5 A4 with K04.

my ECU is old,it ends with 557 T, Giac are saying that they dont make files to the 557 T box.
also..not REVO and most of the leading companys,only Unitronic and SpeedTuning are ready to make a file for me.

I'm loling at the fact that they attempt to describe both an ECU chip, and a transmission chip. Note they also don't specify 1.8T or V6.

I wouldn't touch that chip personally.
