Default Wetterauer chip or Giac chip

i have a 2000 audi a4 1.8t 5 speed and are planning on buying a chip in the next week or so. i keep hereing mixed thoughts between the Wetterauer 1.0 bar chip and the giac chip. honeslty i was told that the giac chip was the best, did the research and found that it gives out awsome power. i currently came across the wetterauer chip reviews and it sounded just as promising as the giac. could you help me out here. what do you recommend would be best?

Default giac...

i just got apr chipped and love it... only bc there is a dealer within 1.5 hours of me... i would have got whatever was closer between apr and giac...

btw. there is a wett dealer within 10 minutes of me and i passed that up. dont want wett, i hear they are good, but giac and apr are the main chip tuners for our car, and it's what most people have... kinda the tried and true thing

Default your name is funny considering you arent chipped yet

giac. i had a wett chip in my old tdi and had ALL sorts of problems with it. i had a giac xchip on my 01 1.8t and it was great. the current a4 with t-28 kit on it has giac tuning and it is also great
