Default Next mod: Tip chip or BPV?

The car: MTM Stage 2 99.5 Sport Avant with Tip (210 hp).

For next "affordable" mod, should I get the GIAC tip chip or a BPV?

Include pros and cons, if possible.

Default Personally...

Get the tip chip, then head down
to your dealer and pick up an Audisport
BPV (search for part #, it's only like $30).

Default Thanks for the tip on Audi Sport...

Will the BPV make much of a difference?

Only if your stock one leaks (which might be), but for the cost...might as well.

Default I didn't get the tip chip, but Forge BPV...it's much smoother than before..

Just my 2 cents.
