Default Just spoke with APR about new program

I just called APR to speak with Jeremy about the possibility of a new program for the 2001.5 cars. Jeremy was sick, so I spoke with a very nice girl about when an update might be comming out. Suprise, suprise, in about a month we will be getting about 15 more hp and 20lbs more torque. She said it would still be running a bar of boost, but the programming will optimize the VVT system more efficiently. Thought I might share the good news.

Default the x-chip hit 1.3 bar

the APR chip doesn't increase boost beyond 1 bar.

Default Oh I truely believe you. It's APR I don't trust. They have said to many times that there products

will be out in a months or 2 or 3 etc.. Don't get me wrong APR makes a great product. Just takes them longer then most companies. I hope they do come out with it soon. Does APR offer free upgrades to current programs?
