I didnt know you could paypal off the website. Just go to the distributors list. I used the guy in Ohio (Rob) and I have ordered them from Scott231 also. Rob was a little faster but both came in good time. Just used money orders
Reds 93
I run a RA93 street chip and I like it a lot.
I had the Thrasher 92 but when I put my cold air intake system on it freaked out on me. Bucked and the like when I got on the gas. A friend with a 92 Thrasher also had his freak out when he put on a cold air system.
The RA 93 didn't care about the cold air system. It has a nice cold Idle about 750rpm and very nice street manners.
I just moved up to his 100 chip to go with my SMC kit.
If you know of any people close by see if you can borrow their chip for a day or so. Get a feel for different ones. No one has the perfect chip or these cars as they al act differently on each car depending on state of tune and such.

Cold air kit I use
The K&N under the hood is a good start. Invest a bit more in a cold air kit and all you are doing is moving the filter out of the engine area so it gets colder air to breath.
