Ive heard the best for the B7 is the APR chip.

And install shouldnt be a problem if you diy. I did it on my B6 and it was pretty simple

To me the best chip in the market is Unitronic. Is by far better than GIAC or any other chips. Look them up at unitronic.ca

Do not go unitronic.. for a chip. What the hell are you talking about?


Go with APR, REVO, or GIAC


Stage one for all those runs you $500 bucks and is relaible and worth every penny.. go with one of those 3 major brands. Just go to there websites and find a dealer near you! Along with a chip you'll need a Diverter valve, that will run you $35-1XX

Just depends on how much you wanna spend for the DValve.

Hope that clears things up

There are very few people running "Unitronics Chips?" if that even exsist.. I thought they were more of a custom tuner for those who go with BT setups... I guess I am mistaken.. but stick with the essentials imo.[&:]

APR, REVO, GIAC.

Im with APR all the way. Look at the "Flip-Switch" add on too. It lets you switch back to stock tuning if you want to go on a long car ride and want better gas mileage. Its $499 for the chip and $150 for the flip-switch. To get it installed you go to a dealer and they send your ECU to APR where they reflash it and then ship it back and install it. You do NOT need any tools or software.

thanks for all the advice guys. finally, when u said go to the dealer, you mean i can go to an audi dealer, or an apr dealer? im assuming u mean apr dealer. where can i find them? any good ones in CT? and also, will that mean i cant use the car for the length it will take them to reflash it?
