Default UNICHIP GUYS I need Help!!!

Does anyone out there on or close to Long Island NY have the patch cable and software for tuning a UNICHIP GP series.

I just spoke with Perry from RIPPMODS to get tuned this week and it turns out he does tune them, however, he does NOT have any cables or software. He says his customers must supply them.

This is really frustrating and I'm beginning to think this unichip product is not the way to go because of the lack of tuner support.


THANKS ANYONE WHO CAN hook me up/ let me borrow your gear, I'll have collateral and slip you some cash if I could get the gear lent to me.

I'm exhausted, it seems useless. I've called approx. a dozen shops in NJ, NY, and CT. There is no one that can tune UNICHIP on a Scion tc.

The only unchip peeps tune mustangs or lightnings or porsche.

I spoke with tech support over at unichip. it appears to be only one dude working there.

he had no clue how poor the support is.

I'm soo ____ed.

My Dezod kit is in, fully installed by mwha with a unichip tune for premium fuel NA engine plugged in and running

The car starts great and idles fine other than some rich burbles I JUST CANT FIND A TUNER!!!

no i just got one for free...

the kit sucks tho. you will have major boost leaks and your turbo seals will kick the bucket basically spewing oil all over.

Good luck.
