Default Better Chip? APR, GIAC, or ???

Just starting the upgrades, figured I'd start with the chip, then move into suspension. Which chip gives better bang for the buck, and why? Thanks.

Default Might wanna search. And they are the same price.

But APR/GIAC are the most popular. From what I hear, APR is a bit smoother and less peaky, whereas GIAC packs quite a punch.
