Unhappy Emergency Help! Need a chip!!!

Hey guys, I'm in a bit of a pickle. Does anyone have an extra chip they can sell or even loan me until I find another one?

I pulled out my Dinan chip from the old ti and when I put the stock one back in it didn't work. I then put the Dinan chip in the new car thinking I could free up the stock chip to put in the other one and the Dinan chip didn't work either. Thank God when I put the original chip back in the new car it worked. The only thing I haven't tried is retrying the Dinan chip in the old car from where it came, but I don't see why that would work.

Anyway, car doesn't move... needs to be moved from its spot before Monday.... Any ideas?

Thanks,

Nick

I wonder if Garik ever took his out of his Ti after he crashed it? Nick, try PMing M3_KILL3R.

Default Good News!

I put the dinan chip back in the green ti and it works! I don't understand why it didn't work on the blue one.... I know I had the divot aligned properly. Can anyone think of any other reason why it might not have worked?

I've done 5 chip swaps in 2 days now. I'm pretty damn fast now. Blink and you miss me!
