Personally I think Unichip's on Porsches, Ferrari's etc are a waste of time really. Porsche spend millions on computer management to ensure that your car has the best compromise of performance and reliability. Unichips alter the fuel/timinng mapping of your car and they can also increrase the rev limit. Why you would want to do any of this and compomise reliability is beyond me.
There is definately a market for these things but not with expensive performance cars that were designed from the factory with perfomance in mind. The only real reason you would need to alter the management is if you whacked in a turbo or supercharger and in this case you would probably go for a full ECU solution like a Motec that can be tuned on a dyno for your car.
A lot of my freinds have experimented with UNichip (mostly jap cars) and I am yet to be convinced of any benefits. Some of them also resulted in a poor idle, running etc after the chip.
