MTM has a reputation for being the "smoothest", they also have a very dedicated and loyal group customers from what i can see. Not sure of local dealers though, maybe someone else can hep

Well seeing as how MTM is based outta Europe It might be tough to fine a chip, However there are some places in the US that vendor them. Try mtm's website and look for american shops.

I had the MTM chip on my car for a while. It was nice and smooth. However my friend has the GIAC on his car and we took turns driving each other's car's one night and by the end i decided i liked the GIAC better. The GIAC adds just a little bit more power and you can noticea difference. It may not be as smooth, it kind of kicks in all at once.

I actually just purchased the MTM chip a day or so ago after reading up on them, sounds like if you have K03s(stock) youd be better off with the mtm as its a little more gentle on them, but you still get more power. Now if you had k04s etc, you probly want the GIAC.

Ilove my MTM. A friend of mine had an APR 93 chipped ECU, and now hasa GIAC 3- chipped ECU, and an ECU with GIACfull Stage 3 with all modes. After riding in my MTM chipped car he said that the MTM is definitely the smoothest.
