Sellout
So stupid
DYNO…..The bullshit killer.
Good to see your original partner in crime there trackside on the radio.👍🏻🏁
Queste scatolette non fanno niente. Via…nella pattumiera.
So u get less then 3 percent quicker lap time…
Wheels and tires rules!
"Includes paid promotion", should have said "who video is an advert". CLICK BAIT!
Thanks for the efforts, I guess, but this video annoyed me a bit. The whole point of the video (I thought) was supposed to be about improvements from the Racechip product, but then doing laps around a tiny little corner-filled circuit are virtually meaningless. Bigger factors on such a circuit are the weight of the car, the tire grip, the brakes, the suspension, and variances in the driving each time, as shown by the lap times. So it didn’t show at all the main point of the video: the changes or improvements from the Racechip. Quarter mile times in a straight line may have demonstrated this better, IMHO. I would love to see 1/4 mile times, and/or 0-60 times; factory, econo, sport, and race, back to back. Anyway, I guess I should go out and do that myself, if that’s what I want to see…
Don’t suppose you guys have a shop do you? or maybe sell other peoples stuff do you? Just wondered
Ok I need a chip
Really like the series, but that Racechip crap….please.
Ahh Curborough Sprint Track. Clenching mens testicles for over 50 years.
thats curborough sprint course thought u guys were from the south
Chiptuned my Saab, gained about 75hp and 120nm
10:40. Maybe that 2,35s just comes because you’re driving and training and improving yourself? Maybe all the money spent is just for nothing?
Well,it is a waste of money…
Can you register a racechip?
Totally bs
All this bullshit that people are talking in the comments is stupid. You can clearly see the car improving ffs
What a nob goes around flexing his muscles at the camera no one gives a shit that you go to the gym
Hellow guys i have a 530d e60 i had a racechip pro2 and its awesome… i want to ask can the racechip work with your hybrid tubo they remaped it ? or you put the racechip in stock mode
Gareth
just proves that more power is always the answer
how much have you spent so far? its a great way to support you business, but what point is it easier and cheaper to buy a M3?
Love those German machines.
The carthrottle website doesn’t work I can’t find anything other than tee-shirts , I would love to buy the tar chip
I had a 330d chipped and it ripped the sub frame from the chassis, blew the turbo and the head gasket. Be warned.
nothing for x1 😣
Didn’t you see the first episode about sudden shocks losing traction? An episode of hitting curbs and avoiding curbs would be great!
OK, problems here are: 1) fractions of a second is within the margin of ‘error’, 2) You’d obviously be faster on the last few attempts around any track, 3) no solid proof that these things actually work, wheres the scientific black and white evidence, some guy standing at the side of the start/finish line with a stop watch on his phone? again, within the margin of error…
Was thinking about getting one for my shitty MK3 Focus 1.6 TDCi 105bhp, I feel like these chip tune boxes are a like snake oil / waste of money. £150-ish for an extra 32HP + torque (+25-30%) on my car would be great if they do the job but this video just fills me with scepticism :/
It would be great to see tuning box upgrade put on a rolling road to demonstrate alleged improvements.
6 months later sells garaoth
3 2 1 What a pile of shit
wow…
BMW Fanatics, E46 330d, E91 330d or F31 330d? whats the best bang for buck
Why diesel?
Real-world case study: Tried RaceChip for an F30 328i N20. Threw codes and produced odd burning smell from under hood. There was a power bump but I was concerned about the side effects. Was returned for tweaking by reseller. Same result. Lost trust in the product. It seemed to be turning up the boost to produce power in an unsophisticated fashion. Binned it and went for an ECU tune, Bootmod3. No codes and no burning smell. Have gone from Stage 1 now to Stage 2 without complications.
In conclusion, if you want refinement from your tune and perhaps better longevity, it’s an ECU tune not a piggy back. For me, it’s BM3 for the win…
PS – I am not sponsored by either.
Il stick to a remap and my 335bhp in my 330d e92.
Even in eco it looks and sounds faster. Unless of course it is camera work. 🤔 Who knows, great fun either way. Quicker off the line.
How come a change of wheels and tyres resulted in 3 times the improvement of a race chip?! 1.4s vs 0.44s
:)) dyno never lies
Radio 1 😀
To prove its not all ‘in your head’ get someone to change the settings without telling you, or even switch the unit off
Lmao what a load of shit
Why is it actually difficult to find a video for race chip that is not sponsoring the video and changing it to an advert.
10:36 Its not an M3
It’s not the chip that made the car faster. Practice makes perfect. You just took many chances to get used to the car and track and you won.
I question the logic of using a bendy "handling" circuit to test engine power – test new shocks by all means but you would do better to test power on a dragstrip !
Put a nos sticker on it. +15HP instantly
This track sesh is what I imagine with any used car I look at…
“never beat on, never raced, no mods”
I have trust issues.
