Default 2.0T Chip Upgrade Question

Hey guys, Im new to this side of the forum. I have a 2.0T and I was wondering what gains I would get out of adding a chip only. Im thinking of a REVO chip, but I cant seem to find any data of just adding the chip. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

Default around 250hp on just a chip with TQ close to 300. Basically you go from a nice sports sedan to a

very fast one with just an ECU upgrade

APR rocks!!!!

Add exhaust and Carbonio intake and you will have great fun. I have quit riding my motorcycles. It is just that fun!

Default GIAC

afterall I think it is they who have the fastest 997 TT in the world, and I think they did the Silver Bullet S4, but I'm not sure.

They're good.

Apparently the latest version is a bit more powerfull than APR, atleast in terms of peak numbers.

I had the sport chip put in my car about 1 month ago and I could feel a difference, but not as much as I hoped.

I upgraded to the new x chip today and it is a world of difference.
Once the tach hits about 2800 the car really pulls. It feels smoother than the sport chip as well. I think GIAC is definitely up to speed now.
