So what can I say other than: #CarCulture is why I’m doing this channel. It doesn’t matter what you drive or your walk of life. If you’re a mature fellow car enthusiast, this is the place for you; let’s run some fuel through those injectors!
Tag along with me as I peruse the highways and byways with my blessings in the automotive department and God Bless you. 🤙
Shout out from Australia. Hey just have a couple questions that I hope you can answer. I'm hovering over the buy button but just not sure yet. So my questions are; Does the racechip work best matching the car modes or do the racechip modes work great with all the car modes? Also.. I've heard it interferes with being able to use your phone for music, is this true? Thanks mate I really appreciate it.
Hello, and thanks for stopping by from AUS; super cool! I appreciate your support. Regarding the issue of Bluetooth connectivity interference: I never noticed that to be a prominent thing, if ever at all, and I utilized that mode of net connectivity to my car daily. For marching the car modes: yes it does just fine as the chip itself is just a piggyback unit, stepping in as…say a mediator between the vehicle’s own ECU/ECM. Though as a word of caution against RaceChip, unless they’ve recently changed/improved the nonsense I’ve discovered after being blessed with the opportunity of upgrading vehicles, Invite you to watch my updated take on them here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JSZkw393B5o.htmlsi=sBYncfh4nL64n414 - Thanks again!! 🤙
@joshc9208 Good to know 🤙. Some folk have short retention and are incapable of actually paying attention to the point; not saying that’s you. Thanks for your feedback - I appreciate it.
Haha yeahssirrr! Thanks for your support. I’ve since been blessed with the opportunity of moving up twice and am now in my dream car: C43 Facelift; recent videos with it! How is the tune going for your Abarth? Those things are sick. So cool. 😎 👊
I like you're video, however you Mercedes/BMW guys are the most annoying people to drive around. Like you guys own the road until I pull up in my SKYLINE, LOL GAME OVER FOR THE GERMAN CARS
Hah thanks for watching, Bro! Yeah I hear you on the annoying ones and in my experience, it’s those younger guys who think they have something to prove. What Skyline do you own and have you had the opportunity yet to check out my most recent vids? #carculture. Thanks again!! 🤙
I don’t but thanks for watching! I traded up to an AMG from this cool C300. There are new videos on my current car here on the channel if you’re interested in watching and, or sharing! What year is your C300? God bless 🤙
In smiles per miles, yeah Bro. Lmao you’re an expert in 🤡’s? Sheeeeish! There aren’t many like you left in the world. Shit on the real: I also liked the shirt and had a buddy working there (I paid for the RaceChip) and he just threw in a shirt and some stickers lol. Thanks for watching! #CarCulture. Have you checked out my recent vids and which awesome fuel turner do you have? I got rid of the CLA in this video a few years back and was blessed with the opportunity of now owning my dream (DD) car.
Appreciate the video, agree the 24 month upgrade policy sucks. But, if you were able to get the reprogramming, would you have put it in your new car? You had nothing but great things to say on the first video with the other car about the performance. I don't switch cars often, maybe every 5 years, just bought a Ford Edge St and ordered the GTS as recommended for amount I was willing to pay, what I wanted performance wise etc.
Just now seeing this comment, and I offer my apology! Thanks a ton for your support in watching this video. Yeah I would definitely put it in my current C43 - also detailed in my latest videos if you happen to be interested - for sure. Congrat’s on your newly acquired Edge ST! I’ve heard those are performers; hells yeah to #carculture, Bro. I think you’ll be pleased with the performance the GTS offers; it’s just that policy they have that’s not golden. Thanks again and God bless!! Do you have an Insta profile with which your car is featured? I’m willing to follow if so. 👊
So, received GTS, running the default "5" setting. Fast as Sh**. I do have an S&B intake, Muffler delete, upgraded BOV. So, to all the haters of Race Chip, I have no complaints.@@Classicman.43
Lol no hate taken, Bruv and what 335 are you talking about? This is the facelift C43 that makes 385/384. It’s an AMG and is supposed to be one. OF course if you've never taken one and actually driven it to its full potential, you're going to comment and say what you did; I don't even blame you. Literally all of the AMG C class models are going to feel like a C300 under light use; that's what they are based on; that's Mercedes-AMG's M.O. They've done this since their inception, even prior to being an official subsidiary of Mercedes back in 2017. Now that they've been Mercedes-AMG for a hot minute, this C43 which started as the C400 (pet project car) then to this final iteration has run it's course and earned that AMG badge they chose to put on it. I don't see BMW or Audi doing that...because they aren't. Their cars are copycat "light" models. I've driven them and there's a good reason this makes more power, albeit on paper but also in actuality when comparing stock to stock. Thanks for watching!
@Steven-mg2vi Tell me where I said they didn’t. Lol as expected, a bunch of bimmer fanboys coming out of the woodworks on this one! They’re all fantastic cars; no hatred received. Did you even watch the full video? This isn’t a comparison to anything but my C43 itself. Could I have easily opted for a BMW? Yes. I decided not to, had one in the past. Thanks for watching.
Thanks!! I’m a bit late to seeing your comment and I appreciate your support. Please share, I have so much more content to sequence and edit. God bless 🤝
I’m so late to this response! If you’re still looking, I’d say go for it if you’re not gonna change cars in the next couple of years (I made a new video of my disappointment with RaceChip). Otherwise - the gains I noticed when I did have it across two cars prior to getting my current AMG C43 FL (hah another set of new recent videos) was fantastic. Thanks for watching and for your support!
Years ago, I had a Racechip pro 2 (old model) plugged into my Mitsubishi. It worked a treat. On the warranty/paperwork which came with it, the reprogramming t&c’s were clearly stated. I knew the reprogramming thing was a mostly a con to boost sales, much like one of those “million mile” warranties you get on some car parts. After 3 years, when I sold the car, I could not complain much about the chip now being useless - it had done it’s job for the application I bought it for. I sold it online for a reasonable loss and moved on. All of the best with your AMG. It’s quite the machine.
Thanks for your comment! That’s good to know now that their reprogramming does work with some cars. With the facelift C43, I know they revised the engine and changed some mapping stuff with it and the transmission. Thanks for the best regards; this car is truly a beast. I appreciate your support and thanks again for this awesome comment Bro 🤙.
Heck yeah Brother!! Man I hit that finalize button on the editing software and almost-immediately thought “I didn’t get Anthony’s number!”. Now that I know you’ve seen the vid - I’m glad to know that you and Little Man like it. More to come!! God bless 👊. Holla
My brother, I'm 40 yrs old, Jamaican Background. I live in Miami, FL. I own a 2013 CLS 550 4-matic. My wife has a 2014 C300. Bro listen, I did almost ten years in prison in my 20's. I LITERALLY don't deserve this awesome life of tranquility and success that I've been blessed with. In other words, I COMPLETELY understand you when you said that you feel like you don't deserve the success that the Lord has blessed you with. Like you said, we are ALL human. I made my mistakes, but somehow life turned around for me once I met my wife 11 yrs ago. I don't want to continue blabbing aimlessly, LOL, but I just wanted to let you know that I am in full support of your efforts my brotha. I'm with you homie, I feel ya struggle and testimony to success. Keep doing your thing bro, not only on RU-vid but also in Life 🙏🏾 I'm a loyal subscriber to your channel and I'll definitely continue watching your videos💪🏾 Keep doing your thing my brother
I felt this!!! Thanks a TON for your support. I appreciate you and is incredible to have read that bit of your testimony. I pray for God’s continued blessings over yours with your wife’s life and mine with my wife! 👊
Yes. Please watch my latest video on this subject and I appreciate your support! I ask that you disseminate the information presented. I’d shy away from this company as much as possible Buyer Beware with RaceChip *DON’T GET YOUR MONEY STOLEN* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JSZkw393B5o.html
Your diverter valve is trying to let off the excess air but can’t cuz it’s recirculating instead most do a crush mod or replace them with a vent to atmosphere blow off valve for that reason back pressure or air back into the turbo is bad for its health
Hello and thanks for watching! I don’t have this car anymore, but from what I can recall: no significant gains in eco mode were noticed. Hah I’m also imagining this is because with the RaceChip, the added thrill of the ride negated any economic style driving urges if that makes any sense. Are you considering getting one, and for which car if you are?
Was wondering how long shipping took for you to receive yours? I ordered mine last Friday and still haven’t gotten a tracking number. I live in California btw
Oh dang and it only took em about a few days! I wonder if they’re having inventory issues 🤔. I resided in VA at the time; they ship out of Florida. I hope you get it soon!! What vehicle?
Right on and I’m glad I eventually got to see this comment from you! I HIGHLY appreciate your support and thanks for the appreciation on my content here 👊. Hmmm…nothing to watch out for; no real concerns from me other than one thing. On my C300, I asked RaceChip to update the firmware and send out a slightly more aggressive tune and they did so within very little time. In fact - I wasn’t even ready for it as it was recommended that I go get at least a K&N drop in filter to accommodate for the increased aggression. Well, the vehicle has had that tune on it for almost a year now and I love every second of gapping things (picking and choosing my battles of course lol) that I have no business gapping with a C class. What vehicle did you put yours on?!
Hey bro I got a 2009 a4 Quattro right so here’s the thing I just ordered a diverted valve spacer and blow off valve kit . I plan on getting this and an intake next . My question is with the bolt ons will I run into issues and should I upgrade my exhaust next . I’m looking to get just a little bit more power like close to 300 crank with out sacrificing too much
you have a 250 or amg 45 ? if you have the cla 250, would sport mode on the app be considered comfort on the car and race mode be considered sport on the car??
Did you not say around 2 mins 40 secs you wanted to thank race chip for sending you out a unit? You didn’t say you bought it then and it would seem like a very odd thing to thank a company for actually sending out something that you purchased???
@@Classicman.43 From the way that you phrased the statement in the video it gave the impression that you were thanking the company for sending you one, ie that it was a gift. Most people do not thank companies for just actually fulfilling their end of a transaction by posting something to the customer after a payment has been made. That is the least that they are required to do. You also have replied to another person further down that your “good friend” works for them and can retune the chip online as it made no difference on his G30 BMW.
