I tried it at the track on my MN6 in Jan-feb of 2001. I ran 0.1 seconds quicker and 2 MPH faster WITHOUT it. On the A4 it might be worth it, but not on an MN6.

I have it installed in my 99,with automatic trannie.I really believe it works best with cars that have been moded.The mods seem to bring out the programing.I don't know if its my imagination but I know a friend who installed Superchips in his car and with every mod added it seem to perform quite well.I don't know,but it feels that way to meIn my car I have a transgo Kit and it works just fine with that mod. :chevy :chevy :flag :chevy :chevy

I've sold quite a few with good results. There is a glitch in the 2000 model though. I'm trying to find out about that for a customer right now. They work fine in the 97-99 and 2001. Go figure!

Yes I have it and it works great. And I have a 2000 model.
I got mine from Pro Auto tech almost 2 years ago. No problems at all.
