    You could have the best product in the world and if no-one knows about it, it won't sell.

    You could have an average product (ie Coke Zero) and hammer advertisements... it will sell.

    Even though it's been previously dismissed as marketing, ..an APR stage 2 (yes real stage 2) has been released in the UK for the Polo GTI - when will it be available here??

    if i was in the market for an ecu flash i would choose one of the more local workshops who do it and that would make you feel comfortable dealing with them. its always great to have a good relatioship with your mechanic and than to stick with them

    And my future career any one need a part time marketing assistant?

    Yeah you beat me to it tosspot: www.coke.com
    I don't think theres been a product which has enjoyed such levels of consumption without providing any benefit to the consumer whatsoever besides a "perceived" one

    Not like I went "Oh APR site is much prettier I'll go with them"

    As stated All three are pretty much on par for performance, the difference are undetectable for normal street use which is what I will be using my car for.

    They all offer the same functionality
    Going with APR as that what I could find the most info on making me feel secure that i knew what I would be getting and what to expect

    If the GIAC site was more informative, didn't have in terms and conditions that you might have to pay for upgrades and had a localized site I'd probably still be debating it

    Do you approve with that decision making better Bug?

    Tell you the truth I think I could go with any of the three and still walk away with a smile on my face and great service

    Was also thinking custom-code but figured that was more specialized than need.

    Still weeks away from getting my car so if you want to convince me I should be going with something else go for it.
