First of all it depends on what year your car is.

Contact the tuner of your choice (speedtuning for your car is my recommendation - I've driven their 30v chip and it's very nice, and costs a fraction of the others). Do what they tell you. You can probably just send it to them but I'd talk to them first and see how they want to go about having you send the ECU in so you can minimize the down time.
