Default Sure, but if the product is faulty...word will spread like wildfire in AW...

so it better work as claimed or at least be upfront with the limitations. I'm sure there will be some gung-ho '02 owners who'll be the initial guinea pigs for the rest. :-)

Default well, I guess it's like with 1st model-year cars ....

The first year is usually full of defects (some small, some not so small), which eventually get straightened out.

I would never be a guinea pig on this chip, especially after hearing about the fuel delivery problems.

I just can't believe they'd be stupid enough to try to make a quick buck off of new A4 owners knowing very well that sooner or later the truth will come out. So maybe they do have a winner on their plate and are the first to hit the market with it. Maybe APR is BS-ing everyone about the fuel delivery problems because they're not ready with their software yet. Like I said, only time will tell (but not measured in weeks, LOL)

On the other hand, Upsolute's website is full of spelling errors. I do realize that English is not their first language, but please, if you don't care to spend a few seconds running a spell-checker then what does it say about your work quality? If that is indicative of their engine software programming, somebody's going to fail their test ;-)

Anyway, I'm sure we'll hear from them again. Let's hope it's all good

Default Faulty, LMAO. There is not a question of fuel, why not have APR chip your 2002 Passat

Since they say they have the software

Default IT COMES DOWN TO THIS

Some don't think of UP as a real chiptuner, they think our product is subpar, thats fine We have been in business twice as long as some;-) one day you guys will realize we have an excellent product. When you complain about spelling on the out of date website you can be sure it's because our tuners in austria are too busy writing progams for VW/Audi/Porche/BMW/Mercedes/Volvo. As far as paying for Ads, Since APR owns this site It doesn't make good business sense. I have many happy S4 owners in florida that love our product.

Default You hit the nail on the head, I'm here to try and wreck you're engine and ruin our companies rep.

Do you think before you type? This is our chance to show you guys we can get a product out first that works well. That chance doesn't come up often, do you really think we would do that. You must be brainwashed.
