- As you may well know, tuning boxes are hugely discussed topic in the tuning world and the question is always whether they actually work or not. Well we're here to prove to you exactly what happens when you fit a RaceChip to your car.
To find out more about the product please leave a comment :) - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Thank you! Actual dyno results and not two idiots sitting on the couch...lol.
😂😂
I saw that bull 😂
Me to
Hahahaha just came from watching those donuts getting themselves in a right pickle 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahaha
Got this fitted on my lawnmower I can cut the grass now in half the time
you're a fuckin genius
Lol
Is it in Race mode?
@@muhammedessay5131 They went through all modes at the highest setting.
I pour whiskey on my lawn the night before I mow it, that way it’s already half cut in the morning 😂
I Have a Racechip on my MK8 GTI Clubsport and I love it. And the service from Awesome was excellent!
Awesome video, awesome results...I would imagine that young man took the long way home!
No doubt!
I would too! The extra long way and then I would probably pass my house "by accident" lol
Excellent video. Just got one for my VII GTD. ...."Where is he? Should have been home hours ago!!"
Great video keep up the great work 👌👌👌👌
Thanks 👍
Great and convincing video, would you recommend it to a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon CRD 2012?
Would you do the same review with UK made TDI-tuning box ? I’ve heard good things about it too.
Glad I found your video, I've heard so many people say it doesn't work or do much. I've also heard folk say it can mess up fuel injectors. Any truth to this?
Bought myself the same gts black + app control can't wait to fit it now ;)
Fitted now works like a boss totally feel the big improvement!
Did the chip stay reliable and cause any problems?
@@nathanjohnshepherd9864 not one problem and be warned it's really aggressive when on race mode lol by the time you hit 3rd it's hold on for dear life ;) fitted mine myself and it tweaked for about a week needing reset with the app to level 0 and then cranking it up in each mode 1 stage at a time till the system learns the parameters then it's all good to go for the rest of the duration and would highly recommend my friend.
Compare golf r racechip vs apr stage 1. Would be interesting to see results
Dude APR wins every time
Have you guys tried BMS JB4 ?
That is it, my mind is made up.... Thanks great video
Glad to help
Which model race chip is this? Thanks
100 - 200 km/h time in my BMW 320d F31: stock: 28s, RaceChip S: 22s, RaceChip GTS: 20s
Fred Flintstone....😅😅
whats the beat you used called?
the smile on his face priceless
While I am watching this I am smiling imagining if I was him
hi where would i get one of these from for my Mini Cooper convertible 2005 plate R52 1:6 cheers
Great video! The smile is worth every penny! I watched this because I want 104 more horsepower for my 630 HP BMW M6 competition.
Love the chip but the Bluetooth on the chip itself sucks for me it constantly needs to be re-sync to my phone to connect and disconnects after 2 weeks
Can you disconnect it with the box still on the loom or will car still not run?
Curious to know if anyone put 2 racechips on their cars. Can be done but unsure how they would react to one another 🤔
Is this available for Hyundai Coupe siii?
Excelente video para los wetas que dicen que no sirve el racechip ;)
I wonder if the dsg is slipping or something
Awesome video
Thank you!
7:34 driver said oof 😂 I love it.
our MB GLS 550 engine light keeps coming on did everything in the instructions and the app on the phone and still the engine light is on getting ready to return the unit it does not work can you help us
I'd love to know how this plays out. Sure hope everything is ok. What year is your vehicle?? (I'm thinking about getting one for my '11 ML550... same engine)
I am curious about your issue too. I am researching this for my MB SL 550 and wondering if I will experience the same as you did.
Just bought a new A3 2.0 Quattro. Would you recommend a Race chip ?
I got the APR Stage 1 tune done on my 2019 Alltrack 1.8T and it was night and day. Do it!
Is adding something like this safe? I have a new 2021 Forte Gt turbo i want to get this for.
Just keep up with the maintenance and don’t push her too hard
I installed one about a week ago no problems so far. You need to change plugs and probably get oil catch can and better intake also
How do we know if the app does connect to the racechip?
Once the app connects, it should give you the homescreen on your phone with the adjustable settings.
I installed mine. Everything was working until Weeks later,
sometimes when I accelerate, it makes weird knocking, ticking, weird sound, hesitation, car shakes and losing power.
Any ideas? Fake scam? Or something needs to fix?
P.S: I uninstalled Racechip and everything went normal again.
you chip is set to a standard map which is on level 5 .I believe they recommend to change it manually up or down using buttons on the chip + - itself if you have experienced any knocking shaking etc.
6:05 sounds like engine knock
that’s the shift
Just curious why you wouldn’t go for a full stage 1 from say APR. Would the APR stage 1 make the same figures?
Probably for warrenty reasons
@@Sdwiked but this would definitely void warranty as well. It would still show a TD1 and boost timings, injector sequences would be off.
Even once removed? I be honest i don't have a clue i was only assuming as it was removable that would be the reason
This is a plug and play option, For when customers don't want to go for a full ECU tune. Yes this is removable and we haven't had any complaints of a TD1 so far.
@@awesomecars1 ok thanks, what gains have you seen on a Gpf golf r stage 1 with APR?
Either dyno the car or measure with dragy. Sheesh😮
Thank you for watching, please leave your feedback in the comments and let us know what you think of tuning boxes? and RaceChip??
did everything what the instruction said to do and the check engine light keeps coming on and husband has been doing this for a week and it does not work
@@nancylunsford5774 please email us at sales@awesomegti.com amd we will further assist you
Can it be fitted without a car lift?
This can depend from car to car.
For the golf R shown in the video
@@ervaunal1054 yes no lift needed
Doesn't the ecu have to 'learn' the race chip first before giving accurate results?
At that age Get more driving experience before fitting more power, the stock 'R' should be enough, insurance premium as it is??
How much was the increase in insurance?
Don't ask, don't tell.😂
Add 10oz of Boostane or VPN Madditive to your gas tank and gain another +30 -40 hp😊
I I want to ask about the new Kia Sorento 2.5L Turbo
Do you have a racing ship for it
Thanks
Can I have a question. You said at the start "...then we'll take the car to the dyno and we'll do some stock runs and then some comparisons with the 7 different setting on this module..." - you said seven and the product brochure says "7 fine tuning mappings" also. OK, but then you measured stock + eco, sport and race, that is only 3 power modes. What is 7 ? I dont understand that sry.
There are also options in each settings.
so do i change the settings on the app only or do i have to change it on the app and also my driving mode? For example - driving mode sport and app sport?
if so what if i stay in eco in my car and change the app to sport?
The most aggressive setting will be sport mode on car and app, the cars modes do not change via the racechip only the racechip sensitivity and output
I still find it strange that you need to have so many settings..... have you heard about good drivers with manual shifts and 0-100 in 2 seconds? That's a chip I'd get....
Alguien lo probo en un ford mondeo 2.0 150cv u otro modelo con el mismo motor?
It’s Bluetooth ?
Yep, if you get the app one it can run from your phone.
Smiles per gallon haha
Watched until I saw the owner wearing a Stone Island top, that was ne 100% out.
Someone looks to be a nervous passenger....
Dark side tested the race chip and a few other tuning boxes and they were all producing less than they stated.
These cars are known to come with more power than factory claimed. So I wonder if that had an influence or not.
One side shows good results on the dyno and another company shows negative information about tuning boxes and they tested them on the dyno as well
We've got real world testing coming up soon at a drag strip. No alterations just simply switching the racechip on and off and running 1/4 mile and 0-60 runs. We'll find out the difference soon!
@@awesomecars1 that video better come out
Darkside were testing the Diesel tuning box, which they concluded only altered the fuel pressure. This is a petrol car and the box has three connections so it can control far more.
@@huwjones5879 so will that always be the case for diesel tuning boxes
@@hamza3p342 no, I just fitted my Racechip S to my 2015 VW Passat TDI 6MT and it had 3 connections as well. Boost sensor, fuel rail pressure sensor, and cam timing sensor.
A45 AMG RaceShit 2update Bullshit . Walet slim GO DYNO FIRST and install Box and Suprise !! Ha Ha
Brilliant. No idea wtf you’re talking about. Ha Ha!
Be careful on some cars no improvement
I wonder how much race chip pays these guys on you tube German made yeah right made in China sold in Germany 😅
Reality is soon as you drive off the check engine light comes on you panick and disconnect it but your check engine light still won't go off you take it to the dealership and find out your ecm is damaged and they won't warranty it so you call race chip in Germany and find out it's really made in China and there's no refund you're ass out😅😅😅😅😅😅
Your a halfbreed these actually come with a 5k engine warranty. And these are dyno tested broke clown
