APR Reflash - Mk V Golf GTI

[Tim]

Hi mate.

Just had a read through on your thread. If youre worried about how the tune will perform why not get together with some local members who have had their upgrades done. Im in east bentleigh and could organise a run in a GIAC tuned car if you like. Maybe there are some APR owners on board who would be willing to help out as well?

If youre after a dyno run. We are actually in the process of organising a dyno day in melbourne towards the end of next month. There will be GIAC tunes available on the day and no doubt you will be able to see a couple of GIAC, APR and Bluefin cars run to see if you consider their tunes safe.

If you require any further info just shoot me an email to tim@dubaddiction.com.au

Thread revival. Re-flash is back on the agenda. I'm located Dandenong South and want a local re-seller to talk to. Sick of going the other side of town for my mods - I'm obviously lacking commitment.

GIAC, APR, Bluefin and can anyone update me on the UK product ST3. Feedback from MkV GTI owners who have done the mods would be great.

Thanks guys.

well I got it chipped (polo with 70km on the clock) from APR Mona Vale 2 days ago. Seriously its insanely quick! got several other options with no extra $$$. Sales ends this month

We don't test products to death as our products never die

OK, OK, I'll admit, maybe I exaggerated just a bit.

Lol , I strongly disagree !

I thought you might , you sell GIAC

Guess I was lucky then, my APR stuff goes pretty good. I don't sell APR, I don't sell GIAC.

In any case, I'm probably more interested in speaking to people who are customers wth experience of the product on their cars, rather than those who are selling.

Anyone got feedback on GIAC or other alternatives?

Thank you,

Lets leave it to the customers that have experienced good results with any of the chips please.

I don't know the chap's name. He was more than helpful but a little short on details. I mean no disrespect and maybe off the mark. Just initial impressions.

P.S. - we can also put you onto plenty of customers too to discuss, plus you also have the option of a free software trial.

That's weird, I always found Guy to be very helpful and very knowledgeable. I've never heard of a reliability issue as a result of an APR ECU upgrade, not ever. Quite a bit of APR stuff has gone into my car and it's all been nothing short of superb for reliability, quality and performance, 10/10 on every count.

Snowy.

Thanks. Excellent to hear.

[LotusGTI]

thats a big call mate. Guy will read that comment soon (as he is a frequent user of this forum) and i imagine he will defend himself. everyone i know that has asked guy questions has had very full and helpful answers in response. when you say you spoke to 'them', did you speak to Guy or someone else??

Cheers,

Ta. Spoke to them yesterday and they seemed know less about the product than their re-sellers in Vic......
