Sort of like will racing gas help my Vdub? Will racing gas help my dragster? Yup in both cases. No speed limits at home.24/96 is a chip. Much like HDCD is a chip. HDCD was originally to decode their discs,but it improved non hdcd ones as well. 24/96......same,but to a much greater degree.Sure put MSB on the map. I had my Theta Gen5a upgraded w/ the 24/96 chip. Most improvement for 300, I can remember.......So how much it helps,depends on what ya' got. Racing gas will burn cleaner/with more power,even in a Vdub.
