Default Split second boost controller

Has anyone used the split second boost controller for a 2001 A4 1.8T? I am trying to decide whether to get that or a chip. Thanks e-mail me at PBall999@aol.com. Thanks for the help.

Default Get the chip dude.

I asked this exact question before I got my chip. The boost controller only increases boost pressure. A new chip adjusts valve timings and such in the engine along with increasing maximum boost pressure. The chip is definitely the way to go.
