Yes, Me Want. I have a local UP rep here and a .8bar already. Bring it to me...

UP to the top.
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (One Dub Nut)

you wont see any huge gain from .8bar to 1.1 bar with the AWD...
If you really want power, go with a bigger turbo (from a AWW or K04), and then get the 1.1 or 1.4 bar chip...

Yes you will. Especially if you already have a 3" exhaust, inlet pipe, and an intake. The difference is very noticeable. I should know...I own a 1.1bar GIAC and a 0.8bar UP.
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (dbrowne1)

Guys As much as I want one, I honestly can say I don't think it will EVER EVER happen!
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (Bug_Power)

I thought Valois said there was already one about to be released??
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (dbrowne1)

I never saw that. I wanted a bigger chip for my NB forever. I have (had thanks to Gambit) every possible bolt on accessory short of a FMIC on my car.

Bugpower, you better talk to Rene (or Austria), they could do what ever you need... trust me... I deal with Ali... he make every chip I sent, costum made, i mean... My race version do 18 to 19psi on low rpm, and 14psi to high rpm... and I have a GTi AWD with K03 (for now, intalling T3/T4)... I also have the ATP 3"DP and 2.5"HPA exhaust + ATP FMIC... and guys... let me tell you this... if the .8Bar chip isnt enought for you, the 1.1bar chip is not going to keep you happy for too long... GET A NEW TURBO

Let see I've asked for Race Gas, 1.1 or even 1 bar program for my NB, 580cc injector program for my K04 while I had it. for 4 months I didn't get 1 finalized file. They can crank out standard programs very well, but all the custom stuff I wanted done either took forever or never happened.

Andy told me there is an upgrade in the mix. It's not that I'm unhappy with my .8 bar, bit when I heard there would be a FREE 1.1bar upgrade, I was interested.

Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (wolfsburg_de)

Yes but maybe a little gentle prodding would...influence the completion of the program.

Hey Rodney isnt the Viper revision file I have a 1bar? 2000 Beetle? same as awd right?
I sure peak at 16psi in 5th
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (FYGTBUG)

spike or hold 16psi?
Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (Bug_Power)

Spike 16 to 17 and holds 15 through 4700 rpm them drops slowly to 12 at full throttle in fifth. Its lower in 3rd and 4th 15 down to 13 then 11.

I think, its only you... my car (with costum made chip) for K04, IC and some other thing, I got throu almost 7 or 8 version, in less than a month... Now, im doing custom made chips for VW Gol and Polo here... and in less than 2 Days I got 3 different version (each version better than the other)... now im going to do some custom chip for a slk kompressor with an eaton E46 supercharger... I think, Upsolute is the best tuner (if your a distributor, or your distributor is good) for custom made chips... you just have to ask them for version, and send then info about the car, and some more details about the problem, or what you want...

When I said 16 psi, I mean, I hit 18-19psi, and then back (at +5000rpm) to 15-16psi...
I think, your chip hits 16, and then back to 11-12psi

Re: *UPsolute AWD 1.1 Bar chip?* (GTi 1.8T)

Also this race version doesnt have rpm limiter (I shift at 6700-6800 rpm), I could shift up to 7000rpm!!... This version is on test now (on my car)... and I only use it, because I have already Exhaust system and FMIC on my car... So I wont recomend this to anyone with stock car (only chip)...
But if you dont care about it, you could just ask to your distributor, and he could give this version to you (on your own risk!!!)...
I have now about 5000miles on it (2 month), and everything is perfect... air/fuel perfect, EGT perfect...
So be patient... soon it would be available... next week, ill give the file away (T3/T4 is here now, waiting for install)... Bugpower... told to Alex, he will tell you about this version...
