i think thats a chip that when you flip the switch it lowers the timing so its safer to run nitrous

Flip chip is a chip witha dual tune. Mostly used in N20 applications. The dual tune feature allows you to safely drive under normal conditions (you can run the car with a nice dyno tuned N/A Tune) and then you can flip a switch to the secondary tune (Usualy the N20 tune) and not have to worry about blowing the motor when running the giggle gas. Basicly you have two tunes available at the flip of a switch. A must in N20 applications.

Obsol3te has a flip switch. When he goes to went to the track he use to have to get out and get the timing light and retard the timing, then he had to tune the fuel pressure and add more fuel etc. etc. then once it was time to drive it on the street again he had to readjust the timing and fuel pressure........... (WHAT A PAIN!!![:@]) then after that it still want tuned to perfection. with the chip he can drive it on the street, then when he wants to spray it all he has to do is flip a switch! it automatically retards the timing, and increases fuel pressure, and does it to a perfect tune. then just flip it back to drive on the the street. and the best part is it can be flipped ANY time you want, whether the car if off, or your cruising down the road at 100mph

Thanks bro!

I will be running a 100 shot through it at first. Probably take it up to the 125-140 range shortly after that though. My bottom end is bone stock with the exception of a B cam. The way I look at it is that if the motor lets go, that's just a good excuse for me to build a monster 331.
