Where to get my ECU socketed?

Hi Guys,

I'm new to the DSM world and I'm wondering where the best place in Vancouver is to get my ECU socketed?

Thanks

I assume you have checked to see that it is in fact an EPROM ECU.  If so, I got mine done at L&R Racing in Port Coquitlam.  A quick google will get you their website.

Thanks! Yes, I have a EPROM ECU and my Keydiver chip should be here in a couple of days. I'll check out L&R when it comes in.

Oh, well if you have the chip on the way, you could just get your ECU socketed by any electronics geek willing to help.

Get a ZIF socket, they are much better and not that expansive compare to regular once.

Also get the caps replaced while you at it, unless it's already done.

sucket my chip.... hahaha

Mike is Sarah and Sarah is Mike, they are the same person.

Well, sort of.... Mike can't keep track of what account he's logged in as so he posts under both him and Sarah.
