Well, 109 is a lot (when we are talking about (R+M)/2 measurement which is used in the US). We did extensive tests with 98 Octane, but not with 109. I can't say that it is safe, because we did not test it. A user tested 100 and it worked (this was short-term and not long-term).

You'll get a great discount. Please contact me via PM if you are interested.

Yes, we are almost finished developing it. Please tell me if you are interested in being a beta tester.

The app itself is free, but the RaceChip with the app feature cost $50 more, because it needs more hardware (bluetooth chip). Yes, boost pressure, manifold absolute pressure and camshaft sensor. The boost pressure increase depends on the boost pressure and the rpms. We usually do not make those...

I am glad to tell you that I got the final ok for the group buy. The first installations and tests in the US were very successful. The coupon code is following: KIA_STINGER The discount is $100 on GTS and GTS Black. The coupon is valid until further notice.

The car is in stock condition again after the RaceChip was removed. It is important the the same process as during the installation is applied: 1) Open the hood 2) Lock the car 3) Wait for at least 10 minutes before disconnecting the plugs The reason is that otherwise residual currents might...

Where/how is the chip installed? In the engine bay. I can send you the instructions via email, if you are interested. (Just PM me.) How many times can Customer Service be used to make a change? And how is that done - I assume it has to be removed from the car? I am not aware of any limit. I...

They work perfectly well together. You can still use all driving modes when you have the performance upgrade. The different driving modes change different things, but not the real power output. They can be compared to our throttle tuning XLR, which shortens the response time of the car.

If you do not have the app, you have those 7 settings (GTS and GTS Black). If you have the app, you only have the three driving modes (Efficiency, Sport, Race). The reason is that we made the experience that people like a "tidy" app interface with not too many buttons. Furthermore, you can...

I am planning to organize a discount of $100 for forum members. However, I do not have a final confirmation from the management yet. One reason is that we would like to wait for the feedback of the first US installations. Please contact me via PM if you don't want to wait and we'll arrange...

You'll have to wait a little bit for such reports, because our product is not available until next week. We did not do much Kia tuning outside of Europe and Asia until now. In other forums (BMW, Mercedes, Audi), you'll find plenty of experiences. Recent postings are more meaningful, beacause we...

I am sorry. We did not test the tuning with those fuels. Thus, we do not recommend using the tune if you use those kinds of fuel. However, you can use our throttle tuning XLR without worrying.

The full technological details are a company secret and depend on the engine. You might get detailed information discussion this face to face with our engineers. The goal of the maps is to adapt parameters such as timing & boost and their dependency on other parameters such as revs. Because of...

The different mappings are predefined based on intensive testing and a lot of experience. For customizing the maps, you need to contact our customer service (if you got the app feature) or send the chip to us (if you do not have the app feature). We have a very broad customer base from techies...

In general, you can use the same fuel recommended by the manufacturer/Kia. Please be aware that they changed their recommendation for minimum octane to 91. Pleast do NOT use 87. However, the better the fuel, the better for the car. We recommend using 93 octane. Furthermore, we recommend...

I am sorry that my answers took so long. There are so many projects going on right now (exciting news about RaceChip in general I am not allowed to talk about yet). Our German wiring harness supplier was not able to deliver, since they were running on capacity. We did not receive any information...

It depends on the product you choose. E.g. the RaceChip GTS comes with 7 fine tuning mappings. The maps depend on several variables (e.g. tuning dependence on rpm, power increase, torque increase), but as a rule of thumb you can say the higher the map the racier the tuning. With the optional...
