    Powerchip ???!!!!

    What do people think of powerchip the company,
    the claims they make see like one of the best on the
    market but i have heard other wise.

    There claims seem a bit bogus.

    If any one has and experiences with there product
    or know some one,
    please let me know.

    I have been told that GIAC are the best of them all
    and proven!!

    Thanks

    keep far far far far away from powerchip is all i can say to you

    without bad mouthing them i have first hand experience with them and wouldnt recommend it. nice numbers on paper, feel/power comparison to giac/oettinger/apr isn't even slightly close lets say that.
    What’s behind you doesn’t matter..

    Go over to vwvortex.com and do a search on "chip". It may be just pipped by a search on "and" or "is" as the most search results produced.


    Oh, and what Fusion said.

    I chipped a Passat and removed a Powerchip from it. On the rollers it was producing about 6kw more at the wheels, than my bog standard A3 which is rated at the same 110KW. Not a big improvement and not at all noticeable on the road.

    The custom-code on the other hand did produce the goods.
