Check the archives.... T.A.P. = CRAP...  They specialize in making 
engines go BOOOOMMMMMM!  Have you tried Ned Ritchie at Intended 
Acceleration?

BTW I don't know how it was but some one just put a T.A.P. chip in their 
S6 and published their 30-70mph 3rd gear times, and they were slower than 
my 5KCSTQ w/stock turbo and 10 Valve motor.......

Later!
