    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    Our engineers just spend some more time on the US spec Stinger and also did an installation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNLrcvgynVs

    RaceChip GTS Black Initial Review

    Please ask RaceChip Australia for their pricing or make use of the fact that the RaceChip for the Stinger is on sale right now in the US.

    Racechip drive modes and car drive modes

    The driving modes of the Stinger and the RaceChip maps work completely independent from each other. You can combine them as you like. The different RaceChip maps offer different levels of performance upgrades. As a rule of thumb: the higher the map, the more power and torque. However, they also...

    Adding some power to the 2.0T

    I saw a dyno chart of a customer that got almost 200 whp in stock and 233 whp with RaceChip (not as much as promised, we would love to get some more customer charts. Maybe we just get a Stinger 2.0 in the US). The weather was warm and the setting was 6 (setting 7 ist the maximum) We still did...

    Adding some power to the 2.0T

    I have to ask our development in Germany. The graphs and times are usually in the highest setting and good fuel quality.

    Adding some power to the 2.0T

    Aftermarket plugs are a must. Anything else not. Coincidentally, we published a video today about other mods than can be combined with a chip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQ78jige5Bs (sorry for the non-Kia Stinger-content, but it fits to the question) We also just launched our product...

    RaceChip GTS Black Initial Review

    I don't think that 89 octane should throw an error code. Did you check for following?

    I discussed this with our engineers this morning and there is no explanation how the chip could have any effect on the evaporator. So, there is no need to adapt your software. If this CEL appears again, I would let your Kia dealer take a look at it. It's not unusual that new car model...

    Thank you very much for your detailed update. I'll discuss this with our engineers!

    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    Hello saltee, welcome to the forum and thank you for your interest in RaceChip. I am not aware of their prices, I went to the website and found their Beta product for $399 (incl. the Connect option $539). Three times that would be $1,197 (or $1,617). Well, if you want to pay that much, we can...

    It seems like your order was shipped on Tuesday, but I don't have access to your tracking number. Let me check this. Edit: I am glad that the product arrived already.

    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    Hey WhiteStinger33, I am sorry for this we'll solve this asap. Since you installed it recently and already requested it to get shipped with the maximum power there are many possible reasons. So, we have a lot of questions. Please send me some more detailed information via PM so that I can...

    We did not do enough investigation yet to recommend other brands. The HKS plugs seem to work pretty well for many Kia Stinger owners.

    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    I am truly sorry for your hassle. Many customers re-gapped their stock spark plugs and nobody had any issues. The only reason for our recommendation is the fact that we don't want to ever change this recommendation again. Understandably, many customers are upset that we changed our...

    RaceChip GTS Black Initial Review

    UPDATED RECOMMENDATION (May 22) Until now, we discussed that the Kia Stinger stock spark plugs can have issues in combination with bad fuel quality. Now we have seen an issue with stock spark plugs in combination with 94 octane (see posts above). For this reason we adapt our recommendation. We...

    True! No issue with re-gapped spark plugs reported yet. Great, thanks for sharing this information!

    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    Let me discuss this with our R&D please. It's 10:30 pm in Germany right now, so I won't get an answer until tomorrow. I would say, if you want to be 100% sure, replace them. Re-gapping solves the problem, too but I just don't trust the stock plugs anymore.

    RaceChip USA Kia Stinger Tuning

    Thanks, no I get it. You mean the recommendation itself. Until now, there was a 0% issue rate (despite of other reports if issues already in stock condition). So now, we don't have an 0% issue rate anymore, but a 1 or 2% issue rate. Based on the new information I think we should change the...

    I am sorry, I don't understand. What do you mean with "no one is taking accountability for passing on bad information"? Did anybody contact RaceChip about this and RaceChip did not pass information? This is a forum and no RaceChip customer support. Of course, I pass information and react to...
