2.0L 8v chip tuning

[Golf Houso]

Hi there everyone! I own a 1998 golf mk3 2.0L 8v manual hatch, the variant affectionately known as the 2.slow.

Since I am about embark on a few mods: intake, exhaust, 270 cam and maybe a ported head later on, it obviously seems that I will need an updated chip with an increased rev limiter and sports tune so I can make use of the modifications.

Only problem, I can't find anyone that makes a chip for my car, the yanks all have different engines, and the 2.0L in my car comes with the same motor as the UK and Europe spec cars do. So has any chipped, or knows someone that makes chip for my car?

Any help you guys can provide me would make me a very happy person. Oh and by the way the car and myself are in Australia

Cheers, Branko.

A bump on this, I'm also from Australia and have an ADY engine. Thinking of doing some mild modifications (cams, light-weight pullies, possibly port and polish as I'll be taking the head off soon).

Hi folks, Took from VWvortex Forum :

Giac is a very good chip company with a credible past. Prices per vehicle.

Techtonics Tuning probably the most widely talked about chip company on the vortex. Prices per vehicle.

Autotech makes a nice "Q-chip" as they call it. $200 - $300

Neuspeed also makes a chip for the 2.0 8v $300
