Review 1 of 1

Year / Model Reviewed:
 1998.5 Audi A4 1.8T Quattro

Strengths:
The tip chip decreased the shift times of my Tiptronic transmission.
Combined with a performance (GIAC) ECU for my 1.8T engine, it transforms the car's performance.

Weaknesses:
The shifting times did not change as dramatically as expected.

Summary:
I would recommend it to anyone thinking of getting an engine ECU and have a tiptronic transmission. I wouldn't recommend the chip alone; I feel that the benefits wouldn't outweigh the costs.
