And that is your technical assessment is it? Have you tried all of the tuning boxes? If not you're not really in a great position to slag them off. Instead of the hyperbole I'll actually be trying it, worst case is if I don't get on with it, 5-10 mins to remove instead of taking to my keyboard and writing bollocks.

Initial impressions is that there is a power and torque increase and it is relatively linear with a little bit more lag but I suspect that will be the gearbox having to adapt to the characteristics. The shift down from 8th on motorways is invariably to 7th now rather than 6th to get the same rate of acceleration but with less throttle usage. In sport mode the pull is far more urgent on WOT.

Will be running it this week on commute and then on a dyno on Saturday which I have already run my car on to get a baseline to see what the numbers roughly are against what is quoted.
Can't wait to see dyno numbers and your impressions, cos don't know anyone running that racechip, all I know some people choose Abt or mtm, but it's the same technology

Any update on a race chip and your Rs6?
