Shine Racing - do they have the GIAC flash loader or just the solder chip?

I'm thinking of chipping this summer and want to know if they have the flash loader so I can do a trial of it and the flash would be easier for service at Dealer so it can be switched back to stock.

their website only lists the solder chip so i'm not sure if they have the loader or not.

thanks

They do both and give you the choice if your ECU is FLashloader compatible

Not sure they do trials though.

Go with Flashloader if you can, much easier and cleaner all around...

If Schine doesn't have it (which I'd be very surprised to hear), send your ECU to Jeff Moss at Torque-Factory for the work. He did my ECU and it works great.
