Default Been chipped for a year... it is great. You feel it every time you give it gas. The bad part>>

You will mod more. Get a new DV and and FMIC if you can afford, then you will really feel it!

Thanks...and I hear ya! Years ago I was a total aftermarket kind of guy with an '80 Rx7 nicely Webered, basically SCCA level suspension etc - I loved working on that car - to this day, it was one of the best handling cars I've ever been in.
I want to do some work on my TT, but my short term frame is focused on getting a Cayenne Turbo or an RS6 (if that comes back soon).

Default authorized GIAC dealer has to do it. ...

but good news is that if you get multiple programs that way, you can download their switching utility for free to a laptop and use your vagcom cable to toggle between the programs without having to buy a separate device.

Default you need a boost machine to take care of that>>>

the one thing i have found with my GIAC...is it will go into a hard limp on overboost...soft limp is almost non-existent....

HI TTempted - are U happy with the Revo performance? Are you using the serial box switcher yourself or did a dealer need to flash the chip?
