I need more power. Chip's a definite yes. I want to upgrade the bpv also. Any recommendations? upgrade to TT's bpv? Diverter valve? What do you guys recommend?

I asked one of the APR guys about upgrading to the TT BPV when the chip comes out. He said something that really suprosed me. The 02 A4s have the SAME BPV as the TT already. Thre is no need to upgrade.

I checked the one that came with my car and it was a plain vanilla 710. BTW it was not even Bosch, it was KYS. The TT BPV is 710N.

After removing the OEM valve, I compared numbers. Although the OEM valve and the TT valve look the same, the TT valve had different part numbers stamped on it and BOSCH imprinted on it. The OEM valve did not say BOSCH anywhere on it. I definitely notice smoother throttle response (I have the GIAC chip).

OK so should I put that APR info in the same category as the chip will be ready in 2 weeks?
