FS: Unichip .. Soo Sad..:(

FS: UniChip tuned for 15%pulley/catback/intake -$385
UPDATED: I'll ship it for free ONLY to NAM members

I just bought the unichip from spirit16 yesterday.... brought it home last night and the woman flipped out on me when i told her how much i paid for it.. supposedly we are supposed to be saving for a new bed LOL so i guess i am going to have to re-sell it so i dont lose my manhood.. grrr.

so if anyone wants it, it is back up for sale. Oh yeah i did install it this morning and drove the long way to work, and i have to say after the car is warmed up, it makes a BIG difference in the driveability of the car. mostly more torque through the rev range, which = quicker acceleration. the difference was apparent from the moment i pulled down the street. After reading some of the comments on the board about the chip, i had mixed feelings towards it, but i am definitly a believer after hooking it up.

lemme know... i wanna keep it but you know how that goes :( oh yeah all said and done whoever wants it can have it for 385 free+ship (which is what i paid for it) if you want it via paypal add 3% if paying by credit to cover the fees.

Hey, How about that? I'm saving up for a bed too!

You guys getting a King or Queen? What brand did you guys have in mind?

The one I'm saving up for is expensive :( :( :(

I have a certain amount taken out of my bank acct each pay period (every 2 weeks) and have it automatically transfered to a passbook savings acct. that's in my name only. When it gets big enough to pay for my next mod, I spend it. Period. End of discussion. (some people collect stamps or coins)

Also, considering how much of your life is spent in a bed, there is never enough money spent on a really good mattress.We're on our second tempurpedic........very cool.

Tempurpedic is the way to go...
Or in our case a Bobopedic (knock off less than a $1000 cost)
Hate to say it but won't trade that matress even for a jcw kit!
