Best mod for US v5?
Been away from the forum a bit, skimmed through some recent posts to try and catch up. I've been lax... well ok, out right too lazy and havent ordered a Mod yet. (not sure how new v7 is, but v6 was only a rumor last time i was here)
I have a NTSC SCPH-30001 R (v5 i believe), is Magic 2 still the best chip for it? I had thought about getting the Gameshark ones since my memory card makes me boot with GS anyway, but decided I didn't want to play the "Mission Impossible" theme everytime I boot a game.

I just gotta find a reliable site to order one from and someone in my area who'll install it since I don't think my friend wants to deal with the 23 wires. I suck at soddering... hell, I'd probually screw up just taking the PS2 apart to install it.
If anyone knows someone in the Philly/Burlington areas would be great.

Ship it to Bill @ Freedomlives.com and let him do the install...He's located in Chicago so it shouldn't be much to ship it to him...

Thanks, checked them out. will cost me $75 plus whatever it costs to ship out the PS2 so probually around $100... another $70 or more for the chip... Bringing the total to at least $170, plus they won't re-alighn the laser if they screw it up during install... I'm suddenly getting the urge to forget about getting a MOD chip installed since I'm basically dishing out the cost for a seconnd PS2.
