Default I don't believe revo is that popular around here...

mostly GIAC and APR users here. Might want to try audizine.com

Default depending on where you live, if there is a revo dealer near you,

you can get a "temp chip" that lasts like 6 hours or so, so you can try it out. i was debating trying it out, but never got around to it. but as GOOOO says, apr, giac, and mtm are sure bets

Default if you're like me though, nothing's close, so go with

the company with the better customer service. Rate their service from your own experience, not from what we say on the boards-it's too easy to not get the whole story.

Default REVO is very popular in the VW crowd...however,

they don't support the nDBW audi's and haven't been around the game as long as APR and GIAC...

REVO is basicly a company started by a few guys that left APR so they know the software inside and out...

I've been in REVOed GTI's and it's a great chip...customer support seems to be great...and the fact that the chip is undetectable by the dealer is nice...I know, APR has the same thing (their direct port thing) however I hear bad things about it and that REVO is problem free...

Do what you want, but remember that you can always be the first to something...becuase if you do many will follow...
