Default Comments on "Wett" Chip

I just found out that "Wett" allows owners to swap between stock and Wett chip when needed. I think that's a really good idea so I don't have to buy a whole spare ECU. What do u guys think? I know Wett has a pretty good reputation and would really appreciate any Wett chip owners comments.
I have had my 1.8 for almost a year now and can't wait to chip it after graduation this summer.

TIA

meaning you have to physically change the chips out? is it socketed?

Default I have the .8 bar program, I love it. And it does come with a stock chip as well...

It's on a socket so it can be changed quickly for service appointments.

I have the Wett Chip and swapping chips is pretty quick, the second time you do it. The first time I found takes quite a bit longer, but I'd say once you know what you're doing the swap takes say 10 - 15 minutes.

Be careful with those pins though!!!!

Car feels like a slug without the chip.

There's a really good step by step instructions on the Wett site. www.chip-tuning.com

Have had my Wett socketed chip for 45K miles. It's been great!
