Default oh man....another one of these....They are all about the same

Some say GIAC have more of a boost spike, but all of them are going to offer very similar performance, as said on other posts, just go with whatever software your local and trusted tuner carries, and if there are multiple, research the nuances in each brand.

Default Agreed. The performance seems to be very similar across the brands for the most part,

and you don't read about anyone having major issues with any brands anymore either. I would (did) base my decision on which of your local tuners you personally favor and what they carry, along with any other features that the chip offers. I like APR because of the ECMS and the ability to switch programs through the stalk and the lockout feature. And the guys at Achtuning are all super-nice so I would probably have just got whatever they carried, to be honest.

I had revo because it was local, and you can switch back to stock as well.

find the tuner closest that you connect with and buy what they sell.
