Lightbulb Chipping your own ecu???

i purchased my fd about 4 months ago. since then i upgraded almost everything, including a pfc w/commander. with the original ecu out, i cracked it open and noticed it was chipped! i have no idea what kind of chip it is.

ive been chipping ecu for hondas/acuras for about two years (side job). chipping the rx-7 ecu, seems almost the same except for the daughter card. does anyone know where to purchase the daughter card? the daughter card seems easy to make but it might be easier and cheaper to purchase. i know about the diff maps and setups, but has anyone ever chipped their own ecu?

btw...my ecu is for sale...best offer

If you pull off the cover, its pretty obvious. That daughter card is not that cheap by the way. I don't know if Pettit will actually sell it by itself, I'd guess not, but you never know. But...if yours is already chipped, you already have a card...why get another one?
