trial run with chipped mk4 stock

[onepointeightdub]

I remember the last meet someone mentioned that one of the shops in calgary lets you try out the ecu program before you purchase it. Can someone shed some light on this?

I beleive concept 1 lets you do this for a bit before. They sell APR chips.
There are probably a couple other shops around that do this to.

concept1 does with APR and the country hills toyota (if they still do revo) does a 5 hour trial also

Re: trial run with chipped mk4 stock

any place that does chipping should be able to give u a free 'few hour' trial, if no company did it i doubt id ever purchase anything from em.

There is definitely a change... The rpms are now evenly spread out across the board and there is so much torque. The car feels strong now as opposed to being pulled up to speed. More pushing rather than pulling.

I probably won't notice a difference between Revo and APR but I will definitely drop country hills toyota a call and check. I like the APR already but would like to browse before buying. Also I am wondering if there is an even more aggressive program out there. Although its pretty hard to pass up APR's sale. Then again im probably never going to run anything higher than 91 octane anyways ..

no 93 is well worth the money.. is really quite amazing how different the car is on the 93 program 1.8t and 2.7t from my experiences

Re: trial run with chipped mk4 stock

Would it be worth it to buy the 93 Octane chip and treat premiumfuel with an octane booster such as toluene?

Seems cost effective no?

If you search that topic im almost sure around here that you can get away with it just because of our elevation.. Something about the density of air? Although 93 octane is still not the same as 91 octane... i.e. 91 octane at calgary elevation doesnt make it 93 octane...

However about octane boosters i am totally unsure :S...

Was just looking on concept1's site... does APR not do TDI programs?
