Default GIAC folks with boost guages...

what boost are you holding. I'm holding about 15 lbs, just curious if this is normal...I'm new to the whole boost guage thing.

Default Sounds about right...

Maybe a touch more initial peak boost on good days.

Default before and after

In short, I love it! The engine maintains its stock smoothness, but the car simply pulls MUCH harder, especially in the low end. I have the 1.8 6spd, and 5th gear also pulls much harder for me, with 6th a little more of an OD. The major difference anyone who chips will notice is that the turbo lag seen stock on the low end is virtually eliminated alltogether. for a basic chip, 30hp is well worth the investment. I've had oe about 10k now, and no issues whatsoever (although I am paranoid about it, so every now and then I dream up issues-hence boost guage) Hope that helps!
