Default Realistic 0-60 time gains with APR chip

Hey all. I will soon be investing in the APR chip for my 2001 A4 1.8T QM. Was wondering what might be a reasonable 0-60 time after chipping? Thanks.

GIAC X chip is a bit stronger and more aggressive than the APR.

Default What's the release date for v 3.0? I was wondering how other chips (giac, dahlback, etc.) would work

on my car

Default I'm not sure. Only v3.1 is listed on the site, which is slower than 3.0

I have the 3.0 file.

Default I should check mine out... but I don't feel like paying $100 for the home programmer...

I'll try looking at the receipt from the local tuner.

Default Ive run VAG Logs for requested and actual boost on both v3.0 and v3.1...

3.1 requests slightly more boost and for a longer period of time than v3.0 Im totally confused why so many people think v3.0 is faster.

pelicanhead's old A4 with APR/TestPipe did 6.7 on a G-tech with not so great launch.
