They are pretty similar from what I hear. I think GIAC is the only option near me though so I can't get a trial run.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

well, if u decide to go with the GIAC, then go ahead and just get it. they have a 30-day money back guarantee. make sure this is the case at your GIAC dealer. therefore, if u don't like it, u can always come back and get more money back.

I thought I had read a million posts elsewhere on this board that aftermarket mods and chips don't make that much of a difference. But here I read that you guys are feeling significant power upgrades.

Any dyno test or other data to go with the seat-of-the-pants method? Although don't get me wrong, I think seat of the pants is the MOST important criteria, you gotta feel happy with it. I'm just curious about the specs.

I would like to see a dyno chart for before and after on a base Boxster if anyone can get one. That would be the deciding factor in me getting this.
