Default Anyone have feedback on their MTM chip upgrade, more specifically..

Is the performance top notch? It seems that the GIAC chip achieves more HP than the MTM chip...comments/experiences with either or both?
Yesterday there was a thread where people aired their opinions on the APR, and GIAC chip. Great thread, lots of info, but I didn't see any mention of the MTM chip. Would like to hear the opinions on MTM...
Thanks ; )

Default every single person who has commented on MTM has always had good things to say...

...about the chip. Not always so much about the MTM dealer (Joe Hoppen Motorsport).

THe usual comment is "pulls like a ****"

Default Andy_TN has one and when Gjaime had his APR they both felt that the MTM was faster/pulled harder.

Remember "FELT". I don't think Andy has ever had anything bad to say about his.

Default Do you have a boost gauge? Mind telling me what you're hitting

on the freeway as you're cruising around 75mph and then dipp into the throttle. My buddies car is hitting at 1.4bar! That's friggin high for a k03 IMHO. Just curious what yours is hitting at. We were theorizing that he might have gotten the wrong software...we think he got a k04 program

Default I have been very happy with my MTM chip!

It pulls HARD and I have had no problems with pinging, etc. It may not be quite as smooth as some of the other chips (APR), but it does a very nice job, IMHO.

And following two days at the track and a good "blowing out" of the engine, I was getting 33 mpg! Not bad...

Cheers,
Mike
