    just finished another project

    Did the Bosch to Hitach MAF conversion, really simple and quick (adds great reliablity to those with 2000s and early 2001s). Also had to upgrade my ECU from B-Box to L-Box...then decided to go with Marc's K03 tune until the K04s get rebuilt (they dried up and fried(bad oil lines)). Marc's tune pulls much harder than the APR i had initially on K04s. All in all, extremely happy, got everything from Marc. hes been beyond helpful, and I look forward to more business with him.
    B7 RS4...mmmm.

    Marc Is always helpful when i need help with something and almost always answers my email the same day.

    Since when does Marc have a Stage 2 tune?? I'm pretty sure it is just a GIAC chip, as I bought one from him last summer and there is nothing "special" about it

    I HIGHLY doubt he does, but if he does, then shut my mouth

    I just did the exact opposite.. I got a killer deal on a giac a box and a bosch maf for my H box hitachi car, love it so far.. the gas pedal seems more addicting now though haha.

    $350 for a fully updated Giac A box with the race program and $70 for a rebuilt MAf with 1K on it.. can't beat that vs getting my H box chipped for $700($600 for the chip + 100 for the race) I even got it overnighted and still managed to come under what it would have cost just to chip the H box, without shipping. Plus, I have another ECU to switch out if I need to send my H box in for fine tuning for say a stage 3 setup. All I need to do is make an easily switchable harness for the MAF, which I'll be doing soon.
