Default Repost -- No Response. GIAC pump-gas vs. race-gas software:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but pump-gas is the program used with normal 91 octane, and the race-gas program is $100 extra for software that works with 93/100 octane? Please clarify. Thanks!

Default The Race gas program option is a 100 octane program only. Depending on

where you live you will get 91 or 93 as a pump gas program. We are a GIAC dealer. Call me if you have any more questions.

Default Actually GIAC is the only one worth it.....

Main reason is its tuned out your way on 91. Most of the other chip producers tune in 93 country.

Default Race Gas Program gets you about 2HP 3Torque more Stage I in a Stage III setup

Its gets closer to 3HP 4 Torque. These numbers were from the first release of the software. From what I have heard the newer program could produce more then that.

Oh my bad, I meant APR. APR's the setup I'd actually want, but GIAC is 2nd best.

I just installed APR software a few weeks ago. They have (had?) a special introductory deal where for the basic price you get everything - stock, 91, 93, valet, anti theft, security lockout, fault code erase, throttle body alignment.

There is currently no race gas (100 octane) program available for the B6 S-4.

I just leave it set on the 93 program and it is a noticible improvement over stock - throttle response, rev limiter, etc. In my opinion, very much worth the $$.
