For $375.00 you can get a chip or the X-Cal unit, tuned for the mods that you have. They'll do that on top of everything your generic chip will get you.

I agree Mark, I plan on having ADC burn the chip for me. HOwever, there is NO WAY possible to obtain a chip from ADC by wednesday night.

You're probably right. Maybe give them a call tomorrow morning(9am Pacific Time) and see if it's possibly to get one overnighted? Couldn't hurt to ask. Otherwise, be prepared to rag the sh!t of your car and get yourself a nice raise!

After that, go ahead and try and get a Zex, NOS, or Venom kit, and get an SCT flasher program to go with it. This way your engine can run at optimally safe levels while ensureing the presence of the "majic button" if the Hemi starts pulling away.

For $500 you can install an NX wet kit, hide it well and shoot up to a 75 shot without any sweat and no chip. Just pull the platinum plugs. Personally, I'd only use enough to whip him so you don't let the cat out of the bag. Run a 35 shot and that ought to be enough to smoke him.
It uses a micro switch on the throttle so don't let him see that. Better to just use a toggle and turn it off.

LOL, X.. you thug. 
He KNOWS I don't have F/I or a chip...however, a chip is undetectable visually and he's NEVER seen my car run/raced with me. Hmmm.. 
I dunno, man... I almost just wanna go out there as is and given him hell, lol.
As for the "legalities".. it's his company and it's all an agreement. If I loose, so be it, my fault, lol. But, I am feeling pretty good, right. 
If you don't want to chip it, and if it is for just one run.
Pull every bit of weight out that you can, use a 1/4 tank of gas, run octane booster. Clean your secondaries, clean your air filter. Run an open element filter for the run. Hell, run the one run with no filter as that can pick up to 5 HP for you.
There are little "legal" tricks.

Good advice Tom, I'm considering heading up grabbing a Zex kit.
