To chip or not to chip? Everything about chip tuning

Discussing chipped cars.

If you have questions about the chipped car from our material, ask.

I want to get a chip tuning for my Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.0 MT. Will there be a real effect from this? On the forum I read a review from a guy from Kharkiv — he wrote that his fuel consumption decreased. But the most interesting thing is that in Germany people have completely different incomes, and there they gave examples of their prices. And how much will the firmware cost for my car in the end? I myself have an installation center, so we could do this here too.

Unfortunately, this car cannot be chipped either here or in Germany. Its engine control unit is not open for reading and writing. As for the price of the procedure, ours is, of course, more modest than in Germany.

Chip tuning is available only for turbo diesel Japanese cars, and among petrol ones — only for some Mitsubishi and Subaru models. The rest do not have such an option.

Good afternoon. Please tell me, I have a Kangoo 1.9 MT Renault diesel on credit under warranty. Can I chip my car? How much does it cost and what will I get from it. Will the warranty be void? Can they notice chip tuning at the service? Are there visible traces of physical intervention (thread damage, traces of cover removal, etc.)? Understand me correctly, this is important to me.

Good afternoon. Yes, this is possible: power will increase by 30 hp, and torque by 56 N·m. Fuel consumption will also decrease — by about 1–1.5 liters per 100 km. The procedure will leave no traces during scheduled inspection, and the warranty will remain. No mechanical intervention will be required — the firmware is updated via the diagnostic connector. The cost for your car is $350. Booking is done by phone: 044 3616960. Call us.

Interested in chip tuning for VW Polo 1.4 with automatic transmission. Will there be a real power increase and how much does such work cost approximately?

To answer your question, we need to clarify: which engine is installed in your Volkswagen Polo 1.4? Is it a petrol or diesel unit? What is the year of manufacture of the car and what is the engine power?

Gasoline, 2003, 75 hp

After chip tuning, power increases to 89 hp, and torque increases by 15 Nm. The service will cost $300.

Good afternoon. I have a question about chip tuning for a Lanos 1.5, 2007 model year. Will there be a real effect from this?

Good afternoon. Chip tuning is always done for a positive effect, and Lanos is no exception here. Call, make an appointment, come in — we'll do everything. And you can tell about the result later on the forum.

I drove a chipped Tucson for a week, filling it with 95-octane gasoline, although the firmware is designed for 92-octane. I was satisfied. Now in the parking lot I start moving without pressing the gas pedal — both forward and backward. I never thought about that before. Fuel consumption on the highway on 95-octane dropped slightly, by about 0.3 liters. But in the city, especially in traffic jams, the savings are more noticeable — by 1–1.5 liters, because you rev the engine less. I even tried starting from a traffic light in second gear — it worked, but only as an experiment. Today I filled up 40 liters of 92-octane at the ANP gas station on the Boryspil highway, reset the computer, and at a speed of 105 by the speedometer (real 98) got a consumption of 7.5 liters per hundred. The figure held until the railway bridge (Bazhana Avenue — Dniprovska Embankment). Then in traffic jams to the Hotel "Slavutych" and back to Poznyaky, consumption rose to 8.7 liters. For comparison: on 95-octane it was 9.2, and before chipping on 95-octane — about 10.5. But at traffic lights I'm one of the first to start. I'm satisfied with the tuning; I received my old and new firmware on a flash drive on 13.04.2010. After chipping, I've already driven 200 km.

please advise where can I get chipped in Chernivtsi?

Hello! Please tell me, is it possible to do chip tuning on "old-timers" with a mileage of about 400 thousand kilometers, but in good and working condition, specifically the VW T4 2.5 TDI 65 kW (AJT) engine? And will any modifications to the cooling system be required?
