    Remapping

    RaceChip as well as remapping use software to get the best performance out of the hardware (engine). If durability is relevant, the results are usually the same, because they are only limited by the available power reserves.

    RaceChip

    Remapping

    In contrast to remapping, a RaceChip can be removed in a few minutes (e.g. before a service) in order to reset the car to the factory setting. Our tuning can’t be overwritten during a service. It can be reprogrammed and transferred to another car.

 

Plug & Play in 10 Minutes

RaceChip

Easy DIY installation within 10 min. No mechanical knowledge or special tools are required. RaceChip works right out of the box.

Remapping

The process of remapping is very time consuming and may damage the ECU, if done wrong.

All Power reserves activated

RaceChip

Uses software to get the best performance out of the hardware (engine). RaceChip utilizes power reserves smart and efficiently and can’t be outperformed by remapping in most dimensions.

Remapping

Also limited by the power reserves, if durability is relevant. Power upgrades by 40% are castles in the air without exchanging components or harming your car in the long run.

Fine-Tuning also after Installation

RaceChip

A RaceChip is programmed specifically for your engine. On top, you can fine-tune the settings after installation, if required (e.g. your specific engine variants slightly).

Remapping

Remaps may (but not have to) take standard factory model variations into account. Though, after installation they are set in stone and can’t be adjusted to your individual needs later on.

Two Engine Protection Systems

RaceChip

Manufacturers protection mechanisms remain functional, plus additional RaceChip Engine Protection System. This ensures maximum safety and longevity of your car.

Remapping

Manufacturers protection mechanisms can get overwritten. This e.g. leads to your engine not detecting overheating or too much pressure anymore. I.e. wear and tear are increased above an acceptable level.

Safe Engine Warranty

RaceChip

RaceChip products comprise an engine warranty of up to 2 years, which covers all relevant engine components. Moreover, the manufacturer’s engine hardware remains unaltered.

Remapping

Remapping is detected during a normal service, which definitely leads to a loss of the manufacturers’ engine warranty. Most remappers do not offer a warranty on your engine.

Easy Reset to Factory Setting

RaceChip

Easy removal within a few minutes (e.g. before a service) in order to reset the car to the factory setting. Our tuning can’t be overwritten during a service. It can be reprogrammed and transferred to another car.

Remapping

Removal is difficult and will remain detectable (manufacturers’ ECU counts each flash). Moreover, a remap may be overwritten during the service of your car.

Your Audi still has power in reserve.

Tap into its full potential with RaceChip.

Why do different Audi engines sometimes have such different outputs – despite having the same cubic capacity? Because in today's Audis, the main difference between the engines is the software – not the hardware. Our engine tuning products use the same principle.

With RaceChip engine tuning parts, your Audi will often have more engine power than the next up the Audi range. At a fraction of the cost.

+37 HP at lower costs

Audi, a strong brand

Even stronger with RaceChip

Audi created the permanent all-wheel drive Quattro, the first German diesel engine with direct injection and turbocharge introduced to the streets. It's also the world's first series saloon constructed with an aluminium integral body.


RaceChip offers performance improvement for almost all Audi models: Whether saloon, coupé or convertible, the Avant, Allroad or Sportback, Roadster or SUV.


Electronic performance improvement for your Audi

You'll experience a whole new level of driving pleasure with RaceChip – that's what an Audi should feel like!


Chip tuning from RaceChip offers you the latest form of electronic performance improvement. A highly sophisticated and individually programmed auxiliary control device is installed between the engine control unit and the sensors – a type of mini-computer with optimization software developed especially for your Audi engine. This software optimizes the electronic signals that control the engine, enabling up to 30% more power (HP) and up to 30% more torque (Nm).


Our way of engine tuning works according to the same principle of electronic performance improvement that Audi itself uses to differentiate models with identical engine blocks. For example, today Audi offers a broad performance range from 150 HP to 190 HP with the same 2.0 TDI basis.

RaceChip performance improvement always stays within your engine's thermal and mechanical power reserves. Your Audi's engine protection system remains completely intact.


Experience your Audi anew: more power, more dynamic, more enjoyment

No matter which Audi you drive, whether a TDI or TFSI, you can experience it in a totally new way with RaceChip chip tuning. Here are just a few of many examples:


For 2.0 TDI engines in the current series (regardless whether in the Audi A3, A4, Q3 or Q5) you can surpass even the next-highest Audi model with RaceChip diesel tuning when it comes to power – and at a much lower price than you would have paid for the more powerful engine from Audi.


The 3.0 TDI (like in the Audi A5, A6, A7 Sportback or A8) shows what it can really do after TDI tuning with RaceChip Ultimate – with irresistible drive and abundant power. For example, with RaceChip Ultimate the 218 HP version of the 3.0 TDI with 500 Nm torque can be boosted to 258 HP and an astounding 600 Nm torque.


The A5 Sportback, which comes standard with a 2.0 TFSI engine with 179 HP and 320 Nm torque, undergoes a spectacular transformation with RaceChip Pro 2 for 231 HP and 413 Nm: performance data that this premium car can be proud of


From wee to wow – the Audi A1 with the smallest 1.2 TFSI engine (89 HP, 160 Nm) easily bounds over the 100 HP mark with 102 HP (as well as 190 Nm torque) even with our entry-level chip, the RaceChip One.


A Q7 with 4.2 TDI and standard 340 HP comes to life with a RaceChip Ultimate to feature 449 HP. It shrugs off its heavy SUV side to reveal itself as an agile family vehicle that makes full-throttle acceleration fun. Plus, if you ever want to tow a trailer, then you'll enjoy the higher torque afforded by RaceChip – almost 1,000 Nm in total.


You can even mobilise power reserves in the absolute top models like the RS6 with RaceChip. The Ultimate catapults these modern 4.0 TFSI turbocharged petrol engines from 560 HP and 700 Nm to over 700 HP and 889 Nm. These values are at least on par with those achieved by prominent Audi tuners like ABT Sportsline. But you get all of this at a much better cost-benefit ratio with RaceChip.

Brand new: just introduced by Audi and already optimized at RaceChip – the new Audi TT, for both coupé or roadster. We offer our chip tuning products for almost all new TT engines.

Help differentiating CR/PD

Distinguishing between Common Rail (CR)
and Unit Injector (PD)

Applicable to certain Volkswagen AG model series with 2.0 TDI engines

Several Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW model series with 2.0 TDI engines use both CR and PD ("Pumpe-Düse" / Unit injector) technology. RaceChip chiptuning is specially customized to the applicable fuel injection technology with respect to both hardware and software. If your vehicle is specified in the list of applicable models below (all other 2.0 TDI models feature just one type of technology), it is important to determine, before choosing a tuning product, which type of injection technology is installed in your vehicle. For such models, you will therefore find the “CR” or “PD” designation after your engine code.

PerformanceThe following Volkswagen Group model series are applicable:Engine code CREngine code PD
100kW (136hp) Audi: A3 (8P), A6 (C6)
VW: Golf Plus, Jetta V, Passat B6
CAGB, CBAA, CFFA AZV, BMA, BNA, BRF
103kW (140hp) Audi: A3 (8P)
Seat: Altea (5P)
Skoda: Octavia (1Z), Superb (3T)
VW: Caddy (2K, 2C), Eos (1F), Golf V,
Golf VI, Jetta V, Passat B6, Touran (1T)
CBAB, CBDB, CFFB,
CFHC, CJAA, CLCB,
CLJA
BKD, BKP, BMM, BMP

If your vehicle is in this list and you are not sure if it is a CR or PD version, then simply follow one of the following steps to identify CR or PD technology.

Using the engine code:

For PD models, the engine code consists of 3 characters, while for CR there are 4 characters. You can find your vehicle’s engine code in the specification sheet in your service booklet or on the data sticker in your engine bay.
