Well I have been reading about this debate literally all day........my boss is off sick.............
What I have concluded is that RB and SW chips are both quite competent........but they are quite different. The SW chip is most effective in the 4000-4500 + range and would be very attractive to those who frequent the track....or outrun the law. The RB chip gives a better kick in the pants in the lower RPM range and would excite those people who spend most of their time sub 5000 RPM..........so it is a matter of driving style/usage of your vehicle.

One thing I do like about the RB chip is that they have a multi-board option which can hold up to 8 maps.......and changed on command by a remote wired switch to ECU. I just got off the phone with Russell and ordered one of these..........comes with the following settings 1) Stock Map 2) 91 Octane 3) 92 Octane 4) 93 Octane 5) Valet mode - not exactly sure what this is yet , and 6) No Start Mode - for added security. For $300

You can choose whatever maps you want.....I chose 91 & 93 as my options and he threw in the 92 setting for free as he figures our Canadian 93 gas may actually be 92...

I still have two open maps which can be programmed at any time........

So for my driving needs, and the great flexibility it offers I thought this was by far the better deal for me, with room to upgrade in the future without buying a new chip. You can also get the single chip for 91 or 93 Octane for $150........quite the deal in itself.

I'll give some feedback once installed....
