my Sportage CRDi 184 bhp becomes a crazy toy with the raceship on!!! Amazing difference, More response and more power, better gas mileage. I LOV IT ! Same on my Montero Sport before . Big difference . And with only basic raceship.
Once you connect it to your car the chip connects to an app on your phone and tells you exactly what chip it is and how much power it takes the car too. The figures they claimed it took the car too would of made a noticeable difference but i didn't notice anything other than a small increase in torque. It might only be this chip as its one of the older ones.
Hi Chris I recently bought a 64 plate A45 and have remapped it with a Stage 1 and Pipercross Induction filter. Much improved performance and torque albeit it’s still a bit lazy at low revs in comfort. I used Wrench Studios in Hayes but there is also AMD in Thurrock Essex who have a good reputation.
Hi mate, funny you should mention wrench, I actually emailed them today for a quote. Do you still find it a bit laggy as the delay from pressing the accelerater to the car moving is starting to annoy me now, hoping the map gets rid of it, if not I might have to look at a pedal box + the map.
@@TheLondonCarScene . It still feels a bit laggy in comfort and sport but not in manual we’re it feels on point and really responsive. It’s just the Laziness of the Mercedes gearbox which they improved to a certain extent on the facelift models. I think a pedal box would definitely help.
This doesn't seem like a fair review. You bought something used off eBay... and it wasn't even the product you asked for. There's plenty of people who got RaceChips and love them as a step between stock and a full reflash... especially if they want to keep their warranty. Also there's plenty of videos done by various people showing dyno runs and the extra power RaceChips and other tuning boxes make.
Just a question mate how long does your car take to get to it’s optimum temperature I’m talking water cause mine is quick to get to 92deg fast and never goes above that only if I’m stuck in traffic, please what u recon it got lots of coolant
Sounds about right mate, my water temperature is always the first and is quick, oil and gearbox always take a while. I will double check tommorow though and get back to you.
Why would you buy from eBay in the first place , this could be not original. Secondly you are from the UK ,there is a very good tuning company there called TDI tuning.. you should try them
2nd hand item of an old model and didn't get what you ordered, not fair review imo

You bought a second hand item, and blame the manufacturer??? How do you even know what you got is for your car?

@@TheLondonCarScene Fair enough. Thanks for the clarification.

@@FM-kx7ec ah that's a bit annoying. I'll get a pedal box ordered and book it in for a map. Thankyou!

London to Birmingham isn’t far to travel for top tuners..
Tuning boxes are asking for trouble
Agree with you there mate, was only hoping to have it on the car for a month or so, but proper map instead now!
Race chip and tuning boxes are absolute 💩 nothing compares to a remap on a rolling road by a reputable tuner
Agree with you there mate, thought I would get it untill I can decide where to get it booked in, will just wait now 👍
I have GTS Black , one update and waiste money !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
