Title: WTB: E30 M42 Chip - MD
Post by: Nelson_40 on April 30, 2013, 03:42:56 PM
Looking for a Dinan, Conforti/Turner, or MarkD/EAT chip for an E30 M42.

Local is better (just outside of Baltimore), but shipping is okay. Either paypal or cash work for me!

PM or reply here, thanks!

I got mine less than $100 and it kept up just fine with other chipped m42's. never an issue with it for 5 years now

I did notice in my friends m42 the markd chip has a much smoother rev up the range.  They are a good chip.

was it used or new? most chiips under 199$ for sale, are ripped copies of legit chips, I mean "DINAN" m42 chips dont exist lol

More than likely its a clone... But for the $75 off ebay it was worth it imo.

5 years ago before i got it off ebay i did make the effort to contact a popular chip vendor... But no reply via email nor return of phone call i took my chances on ebay. 

Now im tuning via tunerpro

I picked up a 318i last week to fill in for daily duty while my other E30 gets an engine transplant and would like a chip as well.... Prefer the MarkD but open to TMS as well...

Anybody have one for sale?

What do you mean they don't exist?  D900-1833 is the Dinan part number...

I meant cheap authentic dinan chips.

Most cheap chips on ebay are clones of dinan, markd, etc
