How do you know your other chip does not have a rev limiter? Is there a hole in side of your block?

Trying to get out of a few ditches in the winter time, I revved the engine (with the old chip) past 6500 and it never cut. Don't say "you don't know it was 6500rpm, you can't see past five". True, but I can guarantee you guys can guess well enough to know what 6500 sounds like, plus the tacho acceleration as it was climbing in the rev ranges told me that I should let off after it went past 5k really fast.

Pics of the car are in my Intro thread, here:

Lolzzz. So I was autocrossing my car this weekend, and while cleaning it out for tech inspection, realized I had a spare ECU chip in my glovebox. Yesterday, I replaced it with what was in my ECU, and I lost power and torque. A significant and noticeable amount, too. Wait, wtf? Turns out, my $680 car came with a performance chip! Not a bad grab, I guess. I'm going to see how well the stock chip treats me on fuel economy, and maybe I'll just put the other chip in for autocrossing. But I have a feeling the chip is a Dinan knockoff (Ebay type), as the car had no rev limiter before, and now with the stock chip it does (and I do like having that cut).

On to why this post is in the Member rides forum, I am going to be stripping the interior and at least cleaning the crap off the floors, filling any holes, and painting it nice nice. This is to come in the next week or two, after I get my motorcycle running (alternate commuter). After seeing how cool a completely stripped car looks at that auto-x, I really want to do it to mine. It'd make a hell of a cool commuter, too. Plus, I want to start getting more competitive in the autox scene with my eta. Occasionally, I'll do some open wheel at the SCCA events, but I still love my dd.

Any E30 auto-xers in the Rochester, NY area?
