Default Which chip for the TT 225

I am thinking abt but would like to get the biggest boost posible. APR indicated that their chip boosted the 225 to 250+ bhp and 290 torque. Any insight would be appreciated. I am also concerned about dependability issues. Price is not a concern.

MTM, APR or GIAC. Can't go wrong with any of them. If price is no matter go MTM.

Default As Jenner mentioned, if price is no object, get the MTM but I recommend get the MTM+ECU, however...

that will cost well over $1k, so if you don't like that, I recommend the APR with the EMCS chip so you can always go back stock to the dealer undetectable and about half the price. Hope you have a TT without immobilizer yet. Don't know if there is a chip out there for an ECU with it.

Default All of the chips work with the immobilizer . . . It has been documented

on the forum by OcTTober. Basically you need a VAG tool to get a cluster number out of the ECU and then you need to contact someone at a friendly Audi Dealer to give you your immobilizer code! Once you have that then the chip tuner can add this bit of info into the chip and you are good to go!
