Re: TT vs. GIAC (Euro Flavour)

Almost all people that I have talked to prefer the GIAC, I've heard it gets really good dyno results...even Andy from Upsolute recommended it to me, but i dont have a chip (yet), so i didn't vote

Re: TT vs. GIAC (IIIGTIVR6)

I can't compare the two, because I don't have experience with the TT chip, but I have a GIAC and it RULES...the instant I hit the gas a little bit harder after I installed it, it threw me back in my seat. I give GIAC a big http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif !

yep, i was gonna say the same thing. im pretty sure the chips are basically the same. garret is probably a little different considering that if they designed it, they would want something to be different/better about their chips. if you have a TT, id say screw it and keep it. from what i hear, they arent too much different

Re: TT vs. GIAC (Severance)

Ryan , call matt and ask him . I've had both now . I loved the TT , much better curve and o2 to gas ratio was great . The Giac chip has a harsh heavy Gas to o2 ratio .
Best way look at dyno results , the TT has slightly lest power but has the best curve. The Giac has a fast curve but leavels off fast and dies out quick . I noticed this at the dyno with a group of guys , I ahd the TT and evey one else had Garret or Giac . THe results were very noticeable I thougth

My 22cents

Re: TT vs. GIAC (Euro Flavour)

I went GIAC because of the aftermarket cam support. It has no downs whatsoever. Except I won't own my car much longer and I only got to rev to 7300 a couple times

Re: TT vs. GIAC (vr6willeatyou)

7300

, did it pull all the way to 7300 or did it give out with the cams

Another good thing with the giac is that you have a lifetime upgrade!! http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

IIRC, the TT chip is the same as the GIAC, and the TT chip also has the lifetiem upgrade/reburn, except that they don't advertise it http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
either way, both are great products and all who have bought either one of them are happy with their purchase http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

While I have never driven a car with the TT, I can't imagine anything being as strong as the GIAC v.11 http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
