What is involed in pulling the UNI chip out and will it break stuff if I do it myself lol? basically, should I just leave it to my tuner? I've got aps 440cc injectors will it go back to standard tune and run too rich? the more I think about it the scarier it gets!

I am pretty handy with electrical being an AC mechanic, but I might just leave it to someone who is 100% thanks for discouraging me haha. probably a good idea Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/68376-uni-chip-removal/#findComment-1010614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
