Default Which chip best for the 2000 s4?

Hey I bought my s4 last monday and I love it. But Im looking for some more power. I have tinted the windows but that all right now. I want to chip it but im not sure which one is the best. I am taking it to the audi dealership next thursday for them to do a normal check up on it to make sure nothing is going to go out on me. Is that what I should do before getting it or should i take it somewhere else and have a full engine check? And I am also wondering what the best chip is for 93 octane bc thats all I run through it. Thanks

Also I am wondering what else I should do with it. I have a 1500 to spend. Im thinking a chip will cost around 600. And I am thinking about exhaust but I dont want a ricer sound. Plus I dont know if there is any out there for 900 plus install. Im kinda new at all this. I decided to ask people that knew more about it then just going out and buying what looks good.

This question presents 2 problems: (1) the topic has been run over, beat like a dead horse, shot, drowned, etc. etc.--check out the forums; (2) no single opinion is correct. This depends on your application. Again, check the forums.

Ive looked at the forums and ive been through them but I just feel more comfortable asking the questions myself and getting an answer from people that have done the upgrades. Sorry for reposting

Should I get an exhaust first before the chip?

I am thinking about the apr. Has anyone had any major trouble out of it? I have 82k miles on my s4. Think its too much for it to handle at that many miles?

I have hear of troubles with the APR Chips. I have a Giac Chip in my 2001.5 S4. (I love it!) I have 18 psi of boost with little knocking, knocking is the amount of friction that causes vibration that is recorded as knocking. I am In colorado and I have my car fine Tuned to give me High altitude fuel/air mixture.

Revo is a good chip too, but I would be safe and get a GIAC chip.
