Default I got a chip

In fact, I got a few of them....most of them were received from the rocks thrown up from the flipping truck in front of me on the highway. BTW, the touch up paint from Audi is not the best.<p>Steve S.<br>97 2.8QM < - - hey, where's my chip?<p>P.S. Did you try searching on the Registry for people with TAP chips? Alot of the old timers got TAP stuff. Let me think of someone.<br>

Default Re: Steve S.

Read the new EC article about the TT. It tells about Audi's higher tuned engine. I think it was up to 225 HP. The pistons and rods and end bearings were upgraded to handle the horsepower. The 180 HP engine didn't need any engine upgrades.I know Audi is probably conservative,but engine life is something to consider.
