Doode, please respond to the mess below.. It seems like some people aren't taking our tests seriously.. Maybe we need to do a cross country trip and show everyone the power of (imagine Phong screaming) "NOGARO"! shruggs shoulders, well we know which chip doesn't own anything except the little titty..

You got an A box, A box is fast with APR but not the M box - xccess 2003-03-11 12:54:50 (453 views)

I don't understand why the power would change!?! - s4IRIsH 2003-03-11 12:59:26 (284 views)

I don't either. but I know for sure M box is slow on APR - xccess 2003-03-11 13:15:22 (223 views)

Huh? but I thought you beat your friend with the a-box APR program? - LightWeight 2003-03-11 17:41:29 (220 views)

you got mix up,, - xccess 2003-03-11 19:00:29 (221 views)

All fine and dandy, but now we need some hard data please! - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 09:08:33 (518 views)

As you know, Darin, excessive ignition advance may lead to power loss, ---> - VonK 2003-03-11 11:31:43 (218 views)

I have to disagree - in general, the more advance, the more power, as long as you *aren't* pinging - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 12:00:45 (236 views)

Just a couple points on your counterpoints :-p - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 14:49:32 (183 views)

yes it was on the same car.. - xccess 2003-03-11 10:05:00 (154 views)

i wonder whos ABT chip you used in that chicago shootup <smiles>? - djillusion 2003-03-11 09:15:36 (167 views)

Make sure APR is v3.3 when testing. - Jason @ ND 2003-03-11 08:17:06 (240 views)

it's 3.3 :) - xccess 2003-03-11 10:05:44 (124 views)

yes, he had v3.3 and the car still wasn't as fast as the x-chip cars - LightWeight 2003-03-11 09:16:12 (197 views)

It's still a touch slower than the others in my experience. - 2k2S4 2003-03-11 08:17:47 (150 views)

Turns out Drew had the 91 octane version in his chip... - KJ in DC 2003-03-11 08:55:22 (211 views)

You can say the brand. Like I said, til I see another brand distance itself from my PUMP GAS times, - The R 2003-03-11 16:10:05 (164 views)

Xcess ran an A-box chipped S4 when he had the APR chip - LightWeight 2003-03-11 16:19:06 (200 views)

You can say there are too many variables, but guys with the other chips have run - The R 2003-03-11 16:35:48 (149 views)

That's not fair Rob, you are SUPER HERO. Go pick on someone your own size (Z06s). :-P - S4MadManTuningTroLL 2003-03-11 16:16:56 (142 views)

here the deal.... - xccess 2003-03-11 17:15:27 (170 views)

I'm not doubting your car is faster with something other than an APR chip. - The R 2003-03-11 17:32:59 (178 views)

Thanks ,, but now MTM oWNED ME :) - xccess 2003-03-11 17:36:32 (152 views)

I never heard about the GIAC chip having ANY problems... - Markcore 2003-03-11 07:52:24 (258 views)

The X chip had a lot of problems up until the recent version. V8 seems to have solved them for most - 2k2S4 2003-03-11 08:16:57 (257 views)

Safest bet as in "best bet" - Markcore 2003-03-11 08:53:09 (153 views)

I must agree... - xccess 2003-03-11 05:47:57 (141 views)

Your review is scattered and running race gas pretty wrong. - Milpitas2.7T 2003-03-10 23:49:28 (364 views)

one of two things: either he edited his post or you can't read :) - MichaelTM 2003-03-11 06:24:15 (175 views)

Well the post says "ABT on race gas felt as fast as XR", I imagine that is what he brought up. - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 07:59:38 (138 views)

followed by: "but don't feel much torque like XR" - MichaelTM 2003-03-11 08:09:54 (128 views)

Ha, so what does that mean? If it feels as fast, it has to be making as much torque - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 08:16:00 (156 views)

yes yes yes .... that what I said,,maybe - xccess 2003-03-11 07:02:42 (167 views)

The Original post mentions nothing about APR running with Race Gas..... - The Reaper 2003-03-11 05:26:44 (174 views)

Yup. Even the 91 octane program adapted well to race gas. Not like the race program, - The R 2003-03-11 00:30:40 (232 views)

My opinions are based on the tests that we've conducted - LightWeight 2003-03-11 01:11:59 (174 views)

I'm not saying your results aren't true. The thing I always have problem - The R 2003-03-11 09:00:04 (144 views)

your probably right about the APR race program but - LightWeight 2003-03-10 23:55:57 (264 views)

Heheh....maybe some of those funny working M boxes...but my car is far from weak. - The R 2003-03-11 00:28:16 (201 views)

Have you ever ran an x-chipped S4 on pump gas? swapped chips to see if the results were the same? - LightWeight 2003-03-11 01:26:30 (357 views)

x chip on H box s4's is crap...hesitation and sputters all the way from 2k-redline - S4iscool 2003-03-11 06:26:25 (204 views)

I thought the same about previous versions, but X vers. 8 is now pretty smooth in my H box car. - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 08:02:05 (130 views)

no problems with MTM H-box at all - MichaelTM 2003-03-11 06:29:04 (162 views)

did giac edit their software after the first year of release? - S4iscool 2003-03-11 06:33:05 (135 views)

don't know anything about GIAC. I have MTM - MichaelTM 2003-03-11 06:34:05 (162 views)

Me too which is why I ditched MTM. I wonder if maybe they have fixed it ? - DarinS4Turbo 2003-03-11 09:15:38 (124 views)

I doubt they fixed anything. FWIW my chip is fairly old - MichaelTM 2003-03-11 09:18:57 (142 views)
