Honestly, the Saturn mod chips are so inexpensive and so easy to install, there is really no reason to be using the swap trick.

Yeah, but if you keep doing that swap trick on a model 1 Saturn, you'll eventually wear it out and be forced to buy a model 2 anyway. Might as well get that over with instead of ruining a model 1 first.MrPopo wrote:The biggest thing is if you have a model 1 Saturn, since chips for that model are much harder to find.
