Default Dahlback Tip Chip with GIAC software for 1.8T Tiptronic

I have read conflicting results from a number of people who have done big injector upgrade(GIAC, APR, REVO) on their tiptronic 1.8Ts.

Some suggested that the tip chip from Dahlback will help our tip tranny handle the increased power/torque.
KMD Tuning is the only place that sells this dahlback tip chip and they said they are not sure if the tip chip will work correctly with other softwares other than Dahlback.

can anyone give me some feedback on how dahlback tip chip is working with non-dahlback tuning program?

thx

Default a Tip Chip doesn't alter the amount of power it can handle

it alters the shift points/criteria, as well as shift time. You need to have the transmission physically altered to hold more power - look at the level-10 valve body upgrade

Default Danny at KMD is a great guy.

I thought usually dahlback software usually only works w/ dahlback stuff...ie tip chip and ECU...KMD also does GIAC and REVO. So your options aren't limited.
