ok, i got my 2nd chip back from brian and it's great. one thing i did notice is that instead of starting right up when i turn the key, it now has a real small stumble. it went from ''vroom'' to ''bump'' ''bump''' ''vroom''. it is only slight, but it never did it before. also it stalled once and only once right after i installed it earlier today but when i just put it in gear, not while driving. i just disconnected the battery for the night to let the computer reset so maybe that has something to do with it. any suggestions?

on another note, this chip is so cool it's sick! the shifts are so firm and precise and the hp and jump it gave my X is unbelievable. it truely is worth it. i got the 91+ performace program, no stock.
 






it still has yet to stall again. i reset the computer and that may have worked. any suggestions are still welcome from apten owners. thanks.
 






the Chip

Sorry about your troubleshooting. Did you scrub the service port connectors enough? That might be it, but I'm not an expert. Try talking to Brian.
Okay so I just barely installed my chip today and all I can say is DAMN! My Ex hauls ass like no other. The shifts are very much improved and I never was able to jolt back into my seat before the chip. As my first mod, I would say it is worth the $300 bucks.
