Default Chip advice?

I currently have an APR V5.0, soon to buy an AMS/ABT/ CHIP. This chip is insane, much faster in 93 than the APR. My question is do u think the abt chip will be faster than my APR chip in race mode running 105 octane, cost me almost 70 bucks to fill my tank?

Why not just find someone with same ECU and chip and try it out?

Default No, a chip designed to run race gas is going to be faster. I also don't believe that it's MUCH

faster than APR. The difference is so small, that unless you're running side by side with an APR chipped car, you're unlikely to notice the difference. IMHO, if you've already got one of the "big 4" chips, you're wasting your money switching.

Default S4 biturbo page may have your answer...

From the mods listed (including octane) looks like you're gonna need race gas to run with the big boys no matter what software you run.<ul><li><a href="http://www.s4biturbo.com/timeslips.cgi">link</a></li></ul>
