Default Guys...I have used the search for this question...to no avail.....
I have owned my S4 for about 16 months now...and installed a GIAC 1 bar chip at around 4 months. At the time..the claimed gains were about 60hp and 90 lb/ft. I have since upgraded to the X-chip about 2 months ago...and have noticed fairly major power gains from the butt dyno..but have not seen any difference in hp/torque numbers (published...or on this board). What gives? Does anyone know the difference (numbers) comparing the two chips?

TIA...

Default they could both be putting out the same power, just at slightly different powerbands....
giving you that feeling. That, or someone's lying about boost levels!
