Here's a long shot...
Has anyone got the "SL Carbon chip" (The one that came with the Aprilia carbon pipes) they'd like to sell?
I'll pay an arm and a leg for it.
I've got the cans, and really want the chip to match
Drop me a PM or email
apriliatom@hotmail.co.uk if you have one
Many many thanks.
Tom

Does anyone know what sort of label I need to print to make a standard Falco chip look like one of the SL Chips?
I feel there's serious money to be made in a spot of harmless counterfeiting ....

Haha. might add that I used to run the SL chip, but sold it in favour of a power commander. I have now since sold the PC and really want the eprom again. So no home made ones please

More to the point, would you get found out or just provide the placebo effect?

Yeah - I was banking on that for my cunning plan - otherwise I'd have been looking to stick the label on any old chip rather than a standard Falco one.

I have replaced my SL Chip with a Gabro one. I'm not looking to sell mine but suggest that getting a Gabro one is a course of action open to you as well.
Don't put off 'till tomorrow what you can enjoy today

If i cant find an SL one (I'm not expecting to, lol) i'll most likely go down the gabro route. I've read glowing reviews of him and his chips
