[200q20v] chip question

I don't know where the tuners get that "277hp" claim.  It certainly
doesn't feel like a 60 hp (50hp for the S4/S6 people) increase.  I think
in reality you get 250hp (30hp), maybe a little less.

I'd love to see a test on a 1/4 (or the Nurburgring if you have
problems with the sociological implications of visiting a drag
strip) especially with an S4 of stock chip vs. aftermarket.  I've ridden
in a '95.5 S6a w/ and w/o a chip and I couldn't feel the difference, with
the factory providing "overboost."  With our 3B cars maybe the effect is
better because of no overboost, but I'm not sure.

Did anyone do stock ECU vs. chipped ECU (no other mods) with that S-car
dyno session?
