Default Free unichip for a 2008 or 2007 scion tc

Hello! I just got a email from Marinus over at Unichip in Portland OR and he is developing a Unichip for a 2007 2008 scion tc, but he needs a car to test it on, is anyone willing to take there manual 2007 or 2008 tc over to get it tested that is close to Portland? You will get a free unichip kit, along with me as well for setting it up! I belive he will provide some mods as well. Shoot me a message if your interested then we can contact Marinus at 1-866-UNICHIP. The only catch is you have to leave your car there for a week, but I think that is a great deal for a free unichip.

Thanks!

It is a simple plug and play piggyback system that can help maximize horse power and torque by changing the fuel and air ratio to help better suit the mods on your car. It basically plugs into your factory Ecu or brain of the car to change the normal electric signals it sends out to the car that control things such as air and fuel.

Any risk in doing this? Can you take it out at anytime?

It dosen't leave a blue print or foot mark according to Unichip. It can actually help your car run better and get you better gas mileage when your not flooring it, LOL. But if you car is still under warranty you would want to take it out before you got it work on otherwise it could void your warranty I believe.

Is it easy to remove? Just unplug right? If its that simple and he wants to do an auto I'm available March 21-28. But a week is a long time. Any chance i can get it back quicker?

Its easy to put in! I will email him, I'm sure he will want a auto too! It might be Monday before he gets back to me because of the weekend however, but I will get back too you soon. But in the mean time if anyone with a stick is interested let me know ASAP and we will get you hooked up!

Thanks
