Just because you mess up the install or something, doesn't make RaceChip a bad product. They test and tune it on a similar car and engine, and measure all factors to make the best tune. I had great result on both my AMG E63S and Porsche Panamera Turbo S. I had my previous cars tunes lot of other places before and I'm very satisfied with Racechip.

Racechip has been proven time and time again to lie about their gains. Chips are a scam and Racechip was able to sucker a lot of people into a shitty product. You could've easily spent another $300 on top to get a used ECU and tune it so you can swap out if you need to.

I have had 1 racechip and 1 other tuning chip from a company called TDI-tuning, TDI in my A200 and Racechip in my X1 20i Xdrive. The A-Class A200 went from 163bhp to 205bhp, went from 8.1 0-60 to 6.9... a HUGE improvment, also from 40mpg to 48mpg, another hude change. My X1 with the B48 engine went from 192 BHP to 235BHP, and from 7.4 0-60 time to a 6.7 0-60 time, again, big change in performance and gains in efficenct. The tuning chip is basically an external Stage 1, instead of changing the code in the ECU to allow for more boost and fuel throughput, they trick the existing ECU to give more power externally. They're very smart devices and i cannot recommend them enough

Maybe you guys plugged it into the wrong sensors. I don't know how you could not see a difference. I have been using the RaceChip GTS and noticed an incredible difference in response and power as soon as I hooked it up and went for a drive in the default mode 5. Upping it to mode 7 was even better. Then I installed the XLR to go with it and it's even better. I installed on a 2013 Cadillac ATS 2.0T with 112,000 miles on it and have been really pleased with the difference in each mode. With the XLR throttle response is as good as I used to get on cars with a direct cable connection from the pedal to the throttle body. You can set throttle response to be super sensitive if you want and turn it down if you don't. Can control both with my iPhone app. If yours didn't work, something went wrong with the install. I had thought about a flash ECM tune as you could definitely tweak more power from one but the downside I've seen is people tweaking too much and end up with rather severe engine troubles because they change settings in ways that aren't safe or are outside safe operating parameters. Just check the forums around tuning and see how many people are asking for advice because they effed up their engine and it won't run at all. RaceChip works as designed and if you want, you can turn it off and be back to stock or remove completely and haven't screwed up your stock ECM. And if I go to the dealer for service I don't have to worry about them updating my ECM and wiping out my custom tune. Sorry you guys had a bad experience but one bad experience does not negate thousands of satisfied customers all over the world.

Why do people always equate "weight" with quality. 9 times out of 10 when you have a piece of electronics or even if its the cap off of the crap people call cologne these days you will find weights inside. Weights that do nothing but do what? Add weight. Because for some reason people think that matters. Would it make you feel better if they opened those boxes and put in a couple lead sinkers in there so that when you open the box you are impressed? The damn thing is held in with zip ties. Weight is usually something you want to reduce. Not add to. The things probably got as much electronics as a modern key fob.

Wish I had seen this before I bought mine - for a Fiat Abarth. Was a bit of a pain to install as one of the sensors was under the battery box so had to remove that. Which also requires removing the ECU - took about an hour to tear it all apart. Got it in and 1) would not connect to the app at all. tried every trick I could think of to get it to connect. NADA 2) threw multiple codes and got a CEL - disconnected the battery, still had codes. Cleared codes with my OBD2 reader and they just would come back. At one point car would barely run, luckily I was uphill from my house and was able to coast it into the driveway. Took all the racechip stuff out and car is back to normal. Maybe I got lucky and got a bad unit - but it's out and I'm hoping to return it. Doesn't help that they are in Germany so customer support is like a day turn around time.

... Come on, now! You guys are too young to not realize that tiny computer chips don't need to be heavy... I mean, do newer 3lb laptops send you running from the electronics store? Would you rather buy a 10-year-old 13lb laptop? As for the size differences in the racechip products, I'm guessing it's a marketing thing. It's all about perception. "Bigger is better." And to that point, "heavier is (apparently) also better." But hey, if they get enough feedback like yours, maybe they'll comply by filling the empty internal space with cement. Would that make you happy?

Well it could very well could be that this particular car of theirs didn’t react properly to this race chip software but then it’s kind of strange because from all of the videos that I’ve seen people making reviews about this product everyone were really happy with it, I mean let’s be realistic, no one is really expecting 70 hp gain from a tuning chip, but even if it gives 20to30 hp gain I would still say it’s worth it because a remap Tuning would be much more expensive then 750$ ..

I had the Lap 3 piggy back chip on a Hyundai Sonata I loved it has no issues and it did what it said was told 320hp on 93 and it felt pretty close I wound up tuning with Lap 3 a few months later to 365 hp but the chip was sold and the guy still has it two years later don’t hesitate when looking into Lap 3 is all I can say.

This has to be one of the most garbage reviews I’ve encountered. You say “We don’t want to post garbage content.” But you are doing exactly like that. You show no proof “It’s not working” for you both. If you want to try and discredit a company that’s been around for 12yrs gather yourselves and information in a professional manner. Which means don’t sit on a darn couch the entire video. Thanks you two I will purchasing a Race Chip. Have a Blessed day, and stay safe out there kids!

I have RaceChip for my Volvo XC60. Not only do I feel it, It scares the hell out of me at the higher settings. I run mine at about the 50% setting through the iPhone app. The principle of operation is quite simple. It fools the ECU and allows a higher boost from you TC or SC. Not sure these kids are representative.

I had one of the older race chip boxes and didn't find it that good, there was a power gain but just seemed rough on acceleration, I now have a tdi tuning uk box which was double the price but found it much smoother on acceleration and it also has an extra connection that goes to the boost control unit hence the price difference but I'm sure race chip boxes are better these day's but there prices have shot up also

Almost 2,000 negatives.... lol. I dropped almost a full second .8 actually (0-60) after installing my race chip. I am used to true ECU tunes changing hundreds of parameters (8) Audis and every ecu tune... this is my first low key “piggy back” and I have video proof it works. And again. I normally only buy a true Benched ECU tune (17) modified cars to date. This was my first experience with a “piggy back” and I’ll take it

I just got my race chip for my c43 amg I got the gts black and let me tell you this review is not true at all my car is much faster in fact I shaved almost a full second off my 0 to 60 time getting it down to 4.1 seconds I have the 2017 model c43 by the way. I will say the pick up is much stronger At low speeds and even more noticeable at high speeds. The race chip really works no lie it dose . Could I get more with a remap yes but I love the fact I can turn off the race chip and go back to factory . I only use the chip when I want to have fun that way my cars longevity won't be compromised. My honest opinion is I would pay twice the price now knowing what it dose . So if you have a c43 and want it to be faster then this is the way to go all day. Oh and for who did the video that's bad fourm bashing race chip to promote another product . If you guys want some marketing advice msg me back as this is what I do for a living . I have not tried your product and it might be good but this approach is only going to lose you business.

Ok Where do I start? First off Have you ever heard about Raspberry Pi it is a credit-card-sized fully functional desktop computer that you can probably mail in an envelope with one stamp. My point is powerful electronics don't have to be heavy. In a cell phone, most of the weight is the screen and case, the electronics don't weigh much at all. Sense RaceChip doesn't overwrite the ECU it won't void your warranty. Also, if you are going to write a review let's see some Dyno results or at the very least a video of before and after with some stopwatch times and RPMs, something more tangible than the seat of your pants, feelings.
