I have APR and love it. What year is your car? Mine is a 2008 and it has a "new" DV in it that has had no reported problems from APR. If and when the time come I will get the Forge.

I have the APR chip. Makes the car much more enjoyable. I cracked my DV within days of getting the chip. Forge DV took care of all the issues. Id go with whatever chip is available closest to your house. I have an APR dealer 10 mintues from mine!

I need to take the car somewhere to get tuned? I can't just buy it & install it myself?

I hate taking my cars/trucks anywhere I do everything myself.

What If I bought a 2nd ECU?

Some of them do let you send them an ECU which they'll install they're software on and then you can replace yours with it.

DUDE! just let them do it on site. It takes 20 minuets and your done. All they do is hook a computer to your car and run a remapping program.
