just to let u guys know there is about a 20hp gain on the 100 oct chip to the wheels from APR. Now the only bad thing is I need a new clutch to handle the power.

Yeah, I have the clutch, so no worries there ... but im continually hearing that the APR chip enjoys blowing turbo's. This claim has also been confirmed by the shop that is doing my clutch right now. They are a distributor for APR and a liscenced installer and they have told me that they would honestly go with GIAC, especially if im not using race gace (which im not). But again, to each his own, but blowing turbo's is something that im not trying to deal with right now

don't sweat it adam. **** happens. i'm not worrying much about it, so neither should you. you don't learn when everything goes perfectly. you learn when things mess up and you know why they did and figure out how to fix it and prevent it from happening in the future. better my car then a future customer's right?
