Well... funny thing is I do end up having to defend their perf...
I can't count the number of times people tell me that MTM is way too underpowered. Wierd. When I had my GIAC X chip on my B5 S4, it was peaky and their were days where it just didn't want to go. I swapped it out for an MTM chip and the difference was amazing. MTM was much smoother with a full pull, no peaking and consistent. It felt like my stock S4 just stronger. I think that's what I'm looking for.. an enhancement that doesn't mess up the balance of the car.

Re: My bad....I'll pick option C. Total cost for MTM-like Stage 3 set-up.
ok.. mm.. I'll give you my price in canadian funds first.
Milltek exhaust & downpipe $1400cdn
K04 turbo (used but barely been use) $200cdn
BOsch Injectors $375cdn
K04 Neuspeed 1.3bar chip $499cdn
port matched exhaust manifold approx$100cdn
==============================================
i think these are what the MTM stage 3 included
total canadian price is $2574
US should be around US$1930.50

Same reason I went with AMS/ABT on my VW 1.8t.... flawless performance.
Never cared for GIAC, APR,... I could not accept all the "upgrades" that GIAC would do. That just did not make any sense. Either it is properly programmed and ready, or you don't release it. That's why AMS took months to release. To me, some chip companies (like GIAC) are just too eager to get their chips on the market first. It's a cut throat business and the first one out there gets the customers - sad as that is.
I can't believe my original reply to this post was deleted. What BS.

They deleted it? Why?
Some of the posts that get deleted boggle my mind. You're posts have been always helpful and usually indicate your level of respect for others. I think you shoudl get to say what you want from time to time.. since you've earned it.
As for GIAC. I agree. I think in the mod game, you often get what you pay for.

No idea....
But I did complain (sure they'll never respond).
I said "bastard", in jest, to Mike, and that's about it. This is like the second time something like this has happened (once before with my VALID complaints against Avalon). Damn, ignorant censors. And to think of some of the total crap that is posted and left on here everyday. What a joke.
