2.0T's have a diverter valve, although the earlier production ones had problems w/their seals i believe.

Fortunately, I know exactly when my car was made (right before my07), cuz I had to order it and wait for it to come here on a friggin boat... (not to mention the other identifiers of when it was manufactured...).
But yeah, from everything I've read it seems that the 2.0T's are basically ready to chip right from the dealer, as long as you've broken in the engine.
13.5k miles, got my V1, fresh mobil 1, and a new K&N, a chip is the next (first real) mod on my list.
Just an FYI... I got an interesting e-mail this morning. Turns out that the local Audi Club has a sponsor offering APR discousts. I've sent them an e-mail to see what kind of discount it is. I'll let y'all know when I hear something. I'm not saying goapr, but it'll be nice to know how much this group buy will save us :->
^^^old news, u woulda known this had u been at the last vw/audi meet
any updates?
so I heard back from the apr guys:
"The Cherokee Chapter gets 10% off retail chip prices. Your price would be $673.20 for stock and 93, instead of $748. With 7% tax and $42.50 labor, your total would be $762.82
Read up on APR's website, and keep in mind if you add the $59 security option the complete system is 100% undetectable from dealerships."
One thing to note!!!!
Apparently there could be an ecu upgarde waiting for us when we go in for service.

I'm at 13.5k miles, and I might just try to come in for my 15k service to avoid this euc potential conflict....

What a waste......
I didn't say I was going apr :-P
Just getting some #'s.
I like to do my research!
I understand.
Im interested if the price is right. 2001 Jetta VR6. LMK.
im interested if the price is reasonable. im currently APR chipped looking to go GIAC. 97 A4 1.8TQ
im just interested in the price for the chip only. no dyno, unless its with the price of the chip. let me know
I got one question, I found a guy that has a passat and is selling his, the number on the chip is all the same expect for the last 1 letter. Does that make any difference at all? could whoever installs it change it over so it fits my passat?
His is: 2002 Passat® 1.8T 4B0906018CM
Mine(would be the one for my car): 2001 B5 Passat® 1.8T 4B0906018CL
bump where you at paul????????????????????????????????????
I am interested. I have an 01 jetta 1.8t. When are we gonna a concrete prices
sorry guys i've been slammed w/ work i'll talk to brian and try to get prices this week on what they can do for us; i'm sure it will be better then APR prices and you will be getting more bang for your buck going GIAC anyway.
Im getting a GIAC chip from a guy on vortex. Don't know when Ill get it installed, but I will sometime! It only has the 93 oct program on it, can I get it where I can switch between that and the stock? like with the hand held set?
i'll do it if the price is right...03 jetta 1.8t
UPDATE!!!!!!!
i gave EPG a call today telling them what was up, i told them we have around 15 cars. brian was not able to come to the phone so im waiting on a phone call for better priceing!!!!!!! prices coming soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK I GOT THE INFORMATION ON THE GROUP BUY!!! YOU WILL ALL BE RECEIVING A PM FROM ME SHORTELY MAKE SURE YOURS IS TURNED ON... I WORKED OUT AN AMAZING DEAL W/ OUR LONGTIME FRIENDS OVER AT EPG; I AM NOT POSTING IT AND I DO NOT WANT IT POSTED B/C THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE BID WAR BETWEEN OTHER BOARDS/MEMBERS ON SOFTWARE. WE ARE GIVEN A SPECIFIC DEAL ONLY B/C EPG IS A SPONSOR/FRIENDS W/ IA. YOU MUST BE A MEMBER TO GET THIS DEAL AND EPG WILL BE CHECKING WITH ME ON YOUR MEMBER STATUS BEFORE HE GIVES ANYONE A DISCOUNT W/ THIS DEAL.
PM COMING SHORTLY. IF YOUR STILL UNDECIDED ON WHO TO GO W/ YOUR NUTZ FOR CONSIDERING ANY OTHER BRAND.
I think Im pretty good to go, just found out a trip was cancelled so I can do this now!
oh man.. I'm so excited :->
me too i can't wait to do the benzGIAC for life... seriously i purchase cars that GIAC supports b/c GIAC is best dayum mod i've ever owned!!!! nothing comes close power to $$$ like GIAC
So I can make it to a group buy any weekend but next one (23-25) as I'm flying out to Texas and can't change that.
This weekend is ok for me, but I'm guessing short notice for most ppls. I just have to make it to athens in time to start drinkin for st. patrick's :->
How about march 31st? or April 7th?
I know it's going to be hard to get 15 ppls (or whatever the # is) schedules to sync up, but maybe we should post conflicts here.
so I can get another program added to my already existing one? Im going to like this!
GIAC > The world.... There is a reason why APR is based out of Alabama.... =/
I think... where is the APR office/shop at anyways ?
they're based out of auburn.
I KNOW ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE ASKING ABOUT RETAIL PRICES:
1.8T PUMP - 500$ (40+WHP/70+LBS CAN BE EXPECTED)
2.0T PUMP - 550$ (40+WHP/70+LBS CAN BE EXPECTED)
STOCK MAPS - 50$
RACE MAPS - 100$ (10+WHP/20+LBS CAN BE EXPECTED)
FLASH LOADER - 150$
CUSTOM PROGRAMS: VALET,KILL, ETC (50-100+ DEPENDING ON PROGRAM)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
IF YOU GOT THE $$$ I SUGGEST A FLASHLOADER + STOCK + PUMP + RACE... W/ THE DISCOUNT IT IS WORTH EVERY $$$ YOU PUT INTO IT... THERE WILL BE NOT OTHER MOD GIVE YOU THIS AMOUNT OF POWER FOR THAT $$$!!!!
W/ SOFTWARE + MINOR BOLT ONS EPG WAS ABLE TO GET MY 2001 AWW 1.8T FROM STOCK FORM OF 150WHP/160LB TO 225WHP/290LBS = 75WHP/130LBS GAINS!!!
