Default Re: Anyone installed a Garrett chip?

I had a Garrett Chip installed in my TTQ after 5k miles. Great pulling even in 5th. I constantly have to check to see if I'm in 3rd when I'm in 5th. I understand Garrett is working on a new version that provides even more HP & torque then the add'l 20hp/80#. I will upgrade my crrent chip for $25

Default I am extremely happy with my Garrett Chip!

I couldn't believe the amount of torque and power this chip provided!

it is true that Garrett will have a MAJOR update for his TT chips. It sounds like it will be pushing 210 legit hp, currently it is 203hp. The torque is currently 265lb/ft and I would guess should rise to 275-285lb/ft.

Again, those are guesses based upon e-mail correspondance he has been having with someone I know.

How much does it cost with installation? Does the dealer install it? Can it be installed on a leased vehicle?

Default My TTQ is leased

I had AWE in Philadelphia do the install. The Chip is $495, plus the shipping. Todd charged me a few dollars to do the install.

I am very happy with AWE service.

Larry,

I've followed your posts, seen the photos of your car, and am insanely jealous..

You chipped it, lowered it, replaced the stereo, got the Borla...

Who services it..?? What about warranty issues..??

What happens at the end of the lease..??

I'm dying to chip mine and add the Borla, but I'm petrified that the dealer will tell me
"Sorry, your warranty is void."

What's the secret..????

Thanks!

Scott
