Is it possible to just diconnect the Unichip without having to get it professionally removed? If it is do I just simply find where it's plugged into and pull it out and am I able to just plug it back in if it makes no difference.

You can purchase a bridging plug from your unichip dealer for about $60, or if you have a small knowledge of electrical theory and can use a soldering iron it is pretty simple to do it yourself. (Either remove or make bridging plug.) Make yourself a circuit diagram before you start. There is normally 3 wires (I think from memory) that are cut and need bridging, the rest are just spliced.
If you have any doubt take it to a professional, it could save the unichip or ECU.

All you need is three bits of wire to stick into the plug to bridge the connections through to the ecu. Its easy enough.

Thanks guys, it sounds like too much work and/or cost to bother with. I just had a chat with Dynomotive who say they will retune the chip to get the car running right for around $300 so I reckon that might be the best idea.
