Default GIAC UPGRADE
<center><img src="http://members.rogers.com/lpersaud/2004-A4.jpg"></center><p>Finally updated my ECU today with GIAC. I must say it was worth the 30 minutes and $650.00.

Other GIAC owners - did you notice your boost change from 1900RPM to 3000RPM? I was expecting more power, what do you guys think?

Power band is very smooth and consistant.

Regards,
Leslie

I thought that the next day the car adapted and it felt smoother. I wasn't expecting more power but I was hoping for more power. My best analysis is: "its like going from a 323i to a 328i (not a 330i). It's definitely better though.

Yes boost kicked in a little later. 2nd gear feels the most improved over stock.

Default now get your DV, BoostedTech CAI and exhaust
It will make even a bigger difference all together.

I agree, I was also hoping for more. It feels like my 1999 A4 2.8Q but 3rd is not as strong as my 2.8.

I might do what UltraA4John suggested.
