well... according to the apr website...
it brings power levels on an otherwise unmodified 225hp TT to 263hp/267tq (on the 93 octane map).
i'm not sure if i would recommend it. yes, it adds a lot of oomph, but is harder to drive smoothly than the stock program. i would have to experience other chip tuner's efforts before coming to a conclusion on which one is best.
the power is definitely there.

thanks!
actually they're the bimoto replicas from frh/hartmann wheels (called 'RS4-DTMs'). nice wheels for the price. not super light (25lbs), but with the light kumho ecsta mx's (22lbs) i still ended up 5lbs lighter per corner than my winter setup. it definitely reacts faster.

yeah. :) i wish i could capture the real uniqueness of these wheels on camera, but i just can't...
'tis a real shame, as they look absolutely stunning in person.
thanks for the compliment.
