VetteRacer - Now this would be ironic! You bought your S from my riding buddy, and it would be funny if the chip from his bike found its way into mine via a third party/the new owner. Small world.

The more I think about this, the more unsure I am about refitting a stock chip. I thought I was properly grounded both when I removed mine (installed a Laser system a while back) and when I reinstalled it, yet somehow it got zapped with static electricity and is a tiny boat anchor now. I understand the Laser chip to be much more sturdy in regard to static electricity. Even if you successfully remove your stocker (how could we know for sure?), I might fry it, and that could leave you and I not sure who zapped it and who owes who what. A potentially messy situation, to be sure.

I think now I may as well try reinstalling the Laser chip again first, and if that still works I'll just keep that system installed after all. If that doesn't work, maybe we can work out something on your OEM chip (provided it's the right P/N, of course).

Thanks
