Default APR Chip, B7 Engine, and 300whp?

Is the quoted hp/tq from apr's chip to the wheels or to the crank? Is the B7 2.0T engine Cast Iron with forged internals? How easily is it to net 300whp from the 2.0T?

Thanks.

Another question. I'm stumped on deciding whether to get the avant or sedan. The sedan is 200 lbs lighter, so is there a difference in handling characteristics for these 2 versions? Maybe some pictures of both these cars will help me decide. Thanks.

Default Re: Avants rule!

Better weight distribution too since all the extra weight is in the rear.

Default You won't find any chip manufacturers quoting WHP, at least not directly. The 2.0T is rated from

the factory at 200hp, which translates to roughly 150 whp. To double that number would require a lot more than a chip.

I'm on that site already. I leave that page open. Can't stop looking at both of them. The avant seems more practical while the sedan looks more sporty. So hard to choose.

You can turn the avant into the ultimate sleeper.
