voice of reason? or arguing for the sake of arguing?
Ebay chips have been around forever. Some of them may not be copies, but it's well known that most of them are. There have been binaries floating around of MarkD and JC tunes for years now, and it's not exactly rocket science to buy a $100 chip burner and some blank EPROMs.
The fact is, you have no idea what you're getting, and most likely, it's pirated. $250 is hardly a lot to pay for a tune, that's like 2 hours on the dyno which isn't even enough to do anything.
also, I don't even have a Motronic DME, I could care less about the tuning of them. The fact is, the E30 community is small, and the number of people who actively make new stuff for a 25 year old sedan is even smaller. you're stepping on your own toes and you don't even know it.
