Most of us here in the States do not prefer Wett. chips. Their tuning for the S4 in specific
was sub-par in reliability and customer service, not to mention that the power numbers were
low. The chip for the 1.8T, however, seems to have garnered some respect from A4 drivers. It seems they have publicized the highest ps/hp I've seen so far from a chip-only
mod for the RS6, but I would caution against the numbers being reliable. Their S4 chip was the slowest of all the chips, even though they advertised similar numbers, at least according to those who reported on it at Audiworld.com. I could be "all wet"(chuckle), with reference to this newest release. Maybe the company has worked on the issues I mentioned
in the last few years. Not to mention that Wett has a larger service presence in Europe than they do over here... But bear in mind as well, that the numbers at which they arrived, seemed to
have been forged with lighter wheels as well. Those six spokes can't weigh as much as the 5/multi spoke
OEM's. I don't read German(only French ;), so I only understood the highlights of the article(mostly numbers).
Maybe someone with a little time could translate loosely in summation?

Never mind about the wheel comment. I now see that the wheels
are AEZ wheels. In a 20" wheel, they probably are as heavy as the OEM 19's...
My mistake...
