But I have one question. There appears to be a wire w/ a switch that looks to be designed to plug into the chip and mount somewhere on the dash???? Do all diablo chips come w/ that wire and switch??? And what is it for? The instructions that come w/ the chip don't allude to it.

The switch is to allow you to change from the stock program to your nitrous program and back again. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits!

I had one in my Cobra until I got the Predator. 2003 Sonic Blue SVT Cobra Coupe 2003 RedFire SVT Cobra Convertable 2005 Dark Toreador Red F150 XLT 4x4 2000 Black SVT Contour - Beater

I told Chris that I had Nitrous, but didn't know he had ordered me the flip chip. How will I know which program it is in????

The nitrous prgoram will "feel" slower, than the normal one, without nitrous spraying, due to retarded timing. The way I have my flip setup, so I know what program I am in is by havin different idle speeds. My "Race-gas" program idles 250 rpm higher than my "Pum-gas" program, but it was made like that to start with. 2000 SVT Turbo 295hp/269ftlb@12psi #1 for Bendix Brakes Kits!

When they program it, they should tell you (obviously) which program is on 1 & 2. 1996 2.5LT V6 Contour ATX My Tour+help/info pics E0 rims, Gutted Pre-Cats,CTA Custom Exhaust & Intake, Diablo Chip.
