I have been reading this forum and the UK TT forum. I have pretty much decided on an MTM chip. What I want to know is why some people have posted #'s in the 275 horse range and 310 ft/lb torque range for just a chip and exhaust. MTM only claims 265 if I am correct and 277 or something? Does anyone know the truth? Also it seems like 18's and sport suspension along with titanium covered headlights are coming standard on 180's and 225's in Europe. Anyone heard this too? I feel kinda messed over if I just bought a TT.
