Piggyback?

Jason73 · 06-25-2018, 06:22 AM

Opinions please:
Wanting to add a piggyback unit, 1 plug easy on and off for dealer visits.
Trying decide between the Dinantronics Sport Performance Tuner or the Racechip S. Cost wise both are about the same, but appears the Racechip may provide a bit more power. However, the Dinan has the ability to connect to app to adjust.
Thanks

Racechip has app control, here is a screen shot of mine. It also has a quick disconnect feature for dealership visits. If interested,hit up r33_RGSport for a deal and great service.

If you have that serious of problem the dealer will know that you tuned you car even if the piggyback is not present...

If your that worried don’t tune it...

Jason73 · 06-25-2018, 09:21 AM

Not worried, just don't want to deal with it. And, thanks for the advice between the two.

Have the RaceChip - worked with Ben at RG. No issues, dealer has never said anything. Car was in the shop for 2 days last week .... the shop foreman said most of their tech us the Burger tune :-)

Jason73 , let me know if you need a hook up price.

Unfortunately, I don't stock the S.
IMO, not worth it. Better go RS or GTS Black.

Getting my routine maintenance in 2 days. I won't be disconnecting my RC. It's good to have a cool relationship with you SA even if you don't mod. They will look out for you.

Should stop pushing the app control features. This is not available for the n63tu but some vendors continue to push it as a selling feature despite it being unavailable.

I’m not sure who you’re talking to, but I don’t see anyone “pushing” app control. Relax bud.

Ok ok. I just sent another request to Germany.
I hope they are hearing us out.

Are you gonna be the first to purchase when it is available?

Did I quote your initial comment and are you a vendor.... Relax bud, obviously wasn't intended for you.

You didn’t quote anyone, and threw out an ambiguous comment. Also, Ben didn’t mention anything about app control, only I did. I’m relaxed, with my app control in full effect.
