Well since I've cleared all my CEL issues recently, I've really been thinking about getting chipped again and was looking for any opinions..It looks like getting chipped would really be the best bang for ya buck if your looking to add a good amount of power. The only thing really holding me back is hearing mixed thoughts about the decrease in engine life. I asked my brothers mechanic what he thought, whom he tells me is VW specialist..His mechanic replied, if I don't have a backup plan for a car then don't get chipped. Unfortunately I don't have that kind of money right now. I have read that as long as you don't race every car you see from light to light 
..and you keep up with regular maintenance...upgrade some parts, you should be good to go. I don't drive aggressively all the time..pretty casual..most of the time. BUT every once in awhile it would defiantly be useful to have some extra power.
I'm about an hour and half away from a Neuspeed dealer up in New York so I wouldn't have to take out the ECU leaving me car less, then I get to test her out on the way back I planned on a new FPR, TIP, some kind of exhaust setup and eventually a FMIC. Any thoughts welcome!
