:fencelook: mmm nice - are there any results / tests to back the 30% extra performance on these models.
And will the price include the App for cell phone ?

Up to 30 percent...not 30 percent for every model. The range of piggy backs also vary in performance.

With the old racechip, I managed a 13 wkw increase and torque 100nm at the wheels.

This was dynod at hm auto in August 2017.

Also interested to know. Everywhere I have read, people talk about butt dyno and all I know, the mind can be deceiving too. It will tell you what you want to believe most of the time :fencelook:

Answered above...The results are there. Whilst my results were not as strong as a stage 2 flash, the benefits were definitely found on consumption, torque and I could get some money back when I wanted to sell.

This is more aimed at those that don't want to flash their cars but need to wake the engine up.

Perhaps a good idea to put some of these to the test at the next Dyno Day :thumbs:

I second this, it is the only way to see if they work. I have read a lot of poor comments about Racechip.

I had one on my Audi 2.0 TFSI and I could not feel any gains and I tried every setting (this was one the first ones)

I have communicated with the guys in Nelspruit and they are confident they will make the power, I asked what about the 14day money back guarantee and they said only if I give them a chance to try and get the gains and they cannot guarantee what gains.

I am prepared to pay cash on the spot if they can get close to 80% of what they claim because then it would be a deal.

Only way is run the car on a dyno fit the unit and run again.

It looks like they have come along way and the units look good, one of the guys in CPT got 290KW from his M135i at one of the Dyno days but we all know there are Dyno's and Dyno's.

The proof is in the pudding and I for one would be eager to see the true test results.

I would even go as far to say I would be willing to Film the whole test, edit and post on whatever site requested. This alone would satisfy/or not plenty of potential customers. (It would need to happen in Cape Town)

my 2cents worth.

my 2cents worth.
As stated in my earlier post. I used the previous generation race chip ultimate on my wifes120d. The gains were small on wkw but very decent on torque. Bmw claims 350nm of torque at the fly...I put down 400nm on the wheels. So the gain was there good. This was on sports with no downpipes or octane booster.


However my main reason for buying a race chip and running it for 1 year, was to save fuel. I can safely say our fuel bill on the diesel was reduced by 20% percent for month on month. The car is driven mainly in suburban driving and that's my reason to try and get it down.

Twinz from cape town, has also written a review on the previous generation and his main focus was also fuel economy. You can read in under out vendor section. I will see of one of the new units that's was purchased last week, if the owner is willing to do a before and after dyno for us.

One should always dyno before and after with similiar conditions. BMWs make more power than quoted from the factory in anycase, so true gains will be reflected by an install happening at the dyno with before and after. My 2c on working out the % gain.

What is the specs on the tech details of the 2nd generation? Any link to tech docs?

So much hate for Racechip, why???

Let's get some dyno results to silence the naysayers!

Exactly, and the reason for my initial suggestion. I would love to get one to improve my economy, and would probably be convinced by stats from a smartphone app like Drivvo, which is what I use.

Taking a couple of these units to a Dyno day and proving gains, trust me, guys would probably buy them on the spot.

@FiRi, my comments are in any way intended to harm your business or undermine your integrity, I know better than to do so as it is in no way warranted. I purely see an opportunity to prove something works, as opposed to 50% of potential customers walking away due to speculation.

Firstly, Rennzport is not RacechipSA neither are we the manufacturer of the racechip (RC). We are simply a reseller.

We promote the RC as a good alternative to other piggybacks or flashtunes out there. I run the RC on my Amarok, X1 and 120d and have been very happy with it. Lag is gone, improved throttle response and the added power.

The first & second generation of RCs were a hit and miss because it required the end user to literally "dial" in the car until you get the desired power...but this way of tuning frustrated many.

The RC connect & the latest RC 2.0 range is better then ever. The RCs come preloaded with economy, sport and race settings or "maps" and the end user can simply switch between them using the bluetooth app...without having to dial it in. Users can also request a stronger "map" if you have the right fuel and mods. So the RC of late has become pretty versatile and user friendly compared to its older technology.

The Fseries 120d and the M135 made pretty decent power on the dyno but i dont have acess to those graphs. But most owners buy these tunes for better drivability, extra power and mostly to get rid of the lag...and because it has good resale value.

We dont have to test the RC on dynos to get people to buy it. Its an established brand & alternative tune in the market for those that want it.

I know your intentions are clean bro. I'm too mature to take it any other way

If one of the members that purchased is willing to carry out the tests further, then we will be sure to update. Unfortunately Racechip won't give us a test unit, so we can't do the test ourselves. I did mines over a period of a year and was satisfied with the results. Unfortunately I didn't use an app and just worked on my monthly expenditure before RC and After, and the dyno results after fitting.

Will inform you if anything changes.

Two M135s on the dyno. Guess which one was the RC vs the Jb4. Not shabby at all. On the day the RC made more power.
