Default v-tune...

i don't know about the giac one.. but it seems that v-tune is released to tune your car.

i am about to get greddy boost controller, vc2, and i already have psc1-001 for fuel control.

is it worth me trying to use v-tune or should i just stick to my original plan, get the boost controller and vc2 (to clamp map) and run with this?

the only advanatage i see for v-tune is i get more control over fuel and i have timing control.. but do i really need timing if i run 94octane and boost to 20psi on aprk03 chip? any idea?

Default Not sure about the V-tune but the GIAC Mobile Tuner still has to be used with a tuned GIAC chip

The programs are not ment to tune a big turbo on a K03 chip, they are used to allow the end used to fine tune the chip that was done for that setup on the car.

Default I would keep the hardware for now and I would keep an eye on the Pro-tuner SE

I believe this would be all you'd ever dream of

Lots of features...<ul><li><a href="http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1212202&amp;page=1">Pro-tuner info @vwvortex</a></li></ul>
