    hello all!

    need some advice on getting my 2006 polo gti chipped... bit of a n00b when it comes to this - just know that it will make a huge difference to the performance and god knows i like a little power...

    so... price? where to get it done??

    thanks for your time!

      Chip makes an absolutely unbelieveable difference.

      The difference between a hatch with a little bit of power and a car that is seriously quick.

      IMO Revo/GIAC/APR are the only real options - I went with Giac on my 1.8t and couldn't be happier (Speak to Seb from european automotive - 'Bug_racer' on here)

            Hi Rebecca this thread if approached carefully can be done right so lads give it a fair go.

            Rebecca you can find Seb at UNIT A6 16A AMAX ST, GIRRAWEEN NSW 0410 541 322

            or go to www.euroauto.com.au He is the GIAC seller in Sydney.

                No probs bec just as you would have noticed way too much rubbish occurs on this topic I have an oettinger chip in my polo with 3 inch cat back exhaust and seat air intake and lov it only test drove the stock car for 10 mins picked up with chip installed from dealer so i would say before any other mod this is the 1st to do

                  Also, APR offer the 6 hr free trial if you want to see for yourself what it is like. I just spent Saturday morning gone doing Macquarie Pass and Jamberoo Mtn Rd with the trial. So awesome!! The improved acceleration is pretty intense!

                  I can't afford to do it to mine yet. It was heaps fun while it lasted...
