GIAC Software
Surprised I haven't seen anything about this on here (unless I missed it).

Is anyone running the new GIAC software? If so, what are your thoughts? Did you get just the engine upgrade, or the tranny upgrade too?
According to GIAC, the combo is on special right now for $2000. The engine upgrade is good for 77/123 on 91 octane.

I haven't seen an official post about it here, but there are a few references. The other site has more info on it, including the official release and some posts from people who have it.

Sounds like the GIAC engine/tranny tune will definitely create a more agressive combo. I hope the DSG can survive the extra pressure?

Is there anyone in Chicago land area, northwest suburbs preferably, with APR tune who will be willing to meet and compare GIAC vs APR? I am not suggesting street racing, just car's drivability in drive mode as far as throttle response and etc. If some is interested and will be willing to meet, please PM me.
