The App function will allows you to turn off, change the warm-up timer duration, and change the map via your SmartPhone. Feel free to ask any question or PM me for pricing.

I am also still waiting on the full detail and steps on the procedure. I don't think it is a big deal since I have been selling RaceChip for 5+ years and I haven't got any blown motor to any of my customers who bought from me. I even used it on my personal cars even to my current F97 X3M Competition.

Do you think with hp increase and toque increase from GTS black, ~50hp and ~70tq we will see different? Compare to JB4 , Velos tuning and DME tuning. I would like to try because RC is plug and play and it seem not so complicate. |

Torque is what you will feel in daily basis. CEL wise, it will not happen. RaceChip is well developed before it is being released publicly. Unlike others where it release a test version or beta version and see whether the end user will encounter any issue or not then fix the firmware. I never seen RaceChip do that with end users.

What's the difference between the two tuning devices? How many sensors do they bypass?
Considering these, the Dinantronics Sport, and JB+.

Connection can be from 2 to 3 sensors, depending on your engine type and whether with or without App function. The difference between RaceChip RS and RaceChip GTS Black are: GTS Black have - 7 maps - Built-in warm-up timer, even without App function - 2x free reprogramming within 3 years of ownership - 4 years / 50k engine warranty (1st vehicle and RaceChip GTS Black owner, CPO or used GTS Black doesn't transfer the warranty)

It would be 2 sensors for RS or GTS Black without App and 3 sensors with App.
For 40i, all the sensors are visible after removal of engine cover. Very easy.

IMO shouldn't matter much. I have been selling RaceChip for over 4 years, I haven't got any major issues. Mainly installation issues.

Is there an instructional video for the GTS Black with App control? The video from Racechip only shows the 2-sensor install. I am trying to install the 3-sensor version and I need assistance identifying the cam sensor.

Thank you for the prompt replies to my PMs and the excellent vendor support last night when I was doing the install. So far, so good with the Racechip in my X5 40i. The additional power is what I was looking for. I will post additional feedback once I get more miles on the setup. |
