Want to blow up your engine?

a friend sent me this link asking about it. He said they told him this product is for the just-a-cooper but they could make it work for an S.

I had to tell him to run away:

That's +50 +50 to a just-a-cooper! Who knows what it could do for an S - perhaps +90 +150?


I've got a much more aggessive tune now but haven't had the time to dyno it since it was installed. It's very noticeably quicker than the mild tune though!

Also I clicked on some of the MANY vehicles they have chips for.. +50 +50 on ALL of them.

Gawd.. someone needs to shut this webpage down.

I doubt it's a unichip since it only costs $70

Dude $70 thats a freaking steal. Already bought putting it on the minute it gets here................wait a minute that thing is a scam in a half. You won't detonate the motor you'll detonate the whole car. You'll get in it push the start button and then there will be nothing left

Q: Will the SLR Motorsports performance chip work with my existing modifications?
A: Yes, Our chip will work even better with your existing performance modifications. The SLR chip even works great if you currently have a performance chip installed!


That last bit is quite funny!

Plus the gains are stackable, if you install two chips you will have +100 HP and +100 TQ. I myself am getting four of them. Then wallah I will have my 400HP mini and it will only cost me $300.00.... You guys who payed all that money for Jans tune are suckers.... Ill see you at the drag strip....


What you dont see, is when Jan is doing your tune, and no one is looking he just installs this little beauty and pockets the rest of the cash
