MarkD chip

springs first. you can get into plenty of trouble with the stock level of power. you wouldn't want a car that was fast and had crappy handling. Not that just a chip is going to make it fast, but still.

I agree 100% BUT I would never recommend doing springs without doing shocks at the same time...

If one had to make the choice of chip, or springs. Which would you choose?

just curious. don't mean to bash the thread. I would buy one if i had the $ in hand.

We have 93 octane reformulated in WI Mark told me to go with the 91 and it is sweet... takes the car from a dog and actually makes me happy now. It revs out strong pulling right around 3750 all the way to redline.

I would strongly encourage this chip for the m42 people out there.

Sorry for being a total noob, but is there a tut on how to install the chip? Is it a solder in or a plug in?

Mark,

Glad you are feeling better and thanks for producing high quality items for our cars.

Just bought an m42 chip from mark, havent got it yet but was wondering....

Are there any better gains from an intake or deleting the cat converter? or should i just leave my stuff stock and not bother?

If anyone knows that would be cool. Thanks -Evan

Hi Evan,

just leave the car stock, that is what the chip is tuned for. My shipper should be shipping you order out Monday.

...STILL have not received my $40 refund promised ages ago. I love the chip, but this is just bad business.

Sorry about that. I have some others to send out also. The delay was due to my diabetes type 2, which was really bad for 2 years. It's finally getting back under control. Those refunds WILL be sent, and I hope to do that in a few weeks.

MarkD is the man. Too many cheap, whiney bastards in here. Felt some great gains on the butt dyno (and i'm sure I'd see something on a real one). Well worth the price paid for the chip. Would not hesitate to do business again if I picked up another e30.

why is everyone on this Mark D's case? it looks to me like his chip is a good chip. Plus, the others out there might be pretty good as well, and they cost more money. so why dont the others lower there price? if ppl just did there research the world would be a better place. i will be buying a chip, and i'm going to look at all of the chips tht i can find.
so if anybody knows of a chip for a 325is auto...let me know.

MarkD took a solid second off my quarter mile time. Consistently, every single time. How's that for bang for the buck?

[Cong405]

Cmon guys... this is a product review thread, not a price debate. If you don't like the price, move on.

So I recently just installed MarkD chip into my 318is after months of collecting dust and I'm really liking it. You definitely feel a difference in throttle and a slightly stronger pull. A great upgrade for the m42!

[kishg]

Yeah, because there is SO MUCH innovation for your 25 year old shitbox...

if you don't like mark's pricing, your free to go elsewhere arn't you? no one is forcing you to buy one. don't rip off someone's intellectual property because you don't like their price.
