KelvinTay_130485 Neutral Newbie May 17, 2015 Share May 17, 2015 Hi, has anyone used this before? Any reviews? Does these chips actually increase the hp and torque? Cars feels lighter and can't really tell the difference....would recommend ecu tuning at harmony motors Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vtim 3rd Gear May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 ECU tuning at harmony need to have mods then better gains... yes, best is to do all the mods that one intend to do and ECU tuning be the last. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
azaouogh 2nd Gear June 5, 2015 Author Share June 5, 2015 (edited) Hi, I've installed RS chip to my cruze (manual) and this is so far what I've got. Definitely not much hp and torque gain for a NA engine but it surely helps to adjust and correcting the curves. My pick up improve tremendously when I shift gear. Will monitor the fuel consumption. :) Edited June 5, 2015 by azaouogh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinkydong 3rd Gear June 5, 2015 Share June 5, 2015 Do u have the torque and hp curves for the base run without RS Chip?

azaouogh 2nd Gear June 5, 2015 Author Share June 5, 2015 Do u have the torque and hp curves for the base run without RS Chip? Unfortunately I don't have it bro. Is it true that car tends to take off aggressively when its leaner? The tuner told me that AFR= about 15 and its pretty dangerous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinkydong 3rd Gear June 6, 2015 Share June 6, 2015 Your tuner measured AFR of 15:1 at which part of the run? AFR of 15:1 throughout the wide open throttle run??? That was with or without the RS Chip? Unfortunately I don't have it bro. Is it true that car tends to take off aggressively when its leaner? The tuner told me that AFR= about 15 and its pretty dangerous.

That was with or without the RS Chip? AFR about 15 was at the beginning when he did the run on the dyno without the rs chip. He also mentioned there was too much air intake. Apologies for the lack of information, I am totally new to this and still learning as much as . Hence I am hoping to gain knowledge from you guys :)) After a few runs on the road today, I discovered there was a lag in gear 1 compare to before installing it and which is why he said it tend to drives more aggressively when it is leaner and my AFR before was about 15. He also saaid to give it a week to adapt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tuner told me that AFR= about 15 and its pretty dangerous. Too lean,last time my tuner tuned 14:1 for my Fairlady,after just 10km of highway,the car felt rough,later tuned back to 12:1,feels better..but this type of tuning depends on different cars...Our weather is too hot,to tune too 'lean'. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
azaouogh 2nd Gear June 9, 2015 Author Share June 9, 2015 Hi all, I 've taken out the rs chip unfortunately it doesn't work for my car. few days after installing the rs chip Car starts to juddering in first and reverse gear. There was hesitation when I press on the accelerator compare to before installing the rs chip. I also felt that there was loss of power. Guess it doesn't work on all cars. Got back my refund and I enquired the tuner how come it doesn't work, I thought I was suppose to "feel" more power. He said once you have some mods on your continental or Korean cars, it will somehow not work instead give you more problems. However, a Japanese car with mods will have no prob with this rs chip.

Dinkydong 3rd Gear June 10, 2015 Share June 10, 2015 U didnt actually do tons of mods to your car. The biggest power gain is probably from the headers. I doubt thats the cause of the problem with RS Chip. Nevertheless, u've got your refund back and thats a good thing.

Anyways on a side note, I went to my regular workshop and they installed unichip and did on road tune. So far I noticed big difference compare to rs chip based on the rpm and timing when I upshift the gears. But still too early to say and conclude anything. Don't want to end up like rs chip which works only few days on my car after which caused more problems :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo 4th Gear June 10, 2015 Share June 10, 2015 Anyone used this RSCHIP on Honda City or Fit/Jazz? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fastfive1 5th Gear June 10, 2015 Share June 10, 2015 I guess this shows that RS Chip doesn't do anything beneficial. Altering signals with just 4 wires isn't going to do anything. Don't waste your money on such a device. Use that money for something more useful like new performance tires. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
