    Don’t know why no one else did the thing with driving and changing modes to see it actually make a difference but I truly appreciated that. Just got a race chip for my b9.5 s5 and hoping it’s worth it

      Appreciate that buddy! Thought it was the easiest way to show the difference :) you’ll definitely enjoy it!

    thanks for the review! was leaning towards jb4 bc it can get a bit more power from my s58 engine but now after seeing this, I think ill go race chip piggyback and pair it with their XLR. It seems from this review it'll feel quicker and be more responsive than it would with just a jb4 piggyback.

    • @JLMTAuto

      No worries! I’d like to one day do a back to back of both - I agree I think the RaceChip combination would give you that extra response!

    Got one for my S3 and wouldn’t be with out it now. I have it in S+ and gearbox in D. Perfect for everyday driving and when you want to have fun but put the gearbox in S with the XLR in S+ it’s an animal!! 🔥

      I honestly didn’t think much of the idea until I actually had one on the car. Genuinely one of the easiest, affordable modifications with a huge noticeable difference.
      I’d love to see what it would be like on something like your S3! 👌🏻

    • @rvarm21

      I have an S3 and I notice a delay of 1 second when I put throttle vs when car reacts. Does this help with it (I dont want to modify the throttle curve but want to delete that delay)?

    Great video mate…. Bit scared to try on 1.5 eco blue 120ps leased diesel focus though 😆 🤔 should I 😈?

    • @JLMTAuto
      @JLMTAuto  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Why not? No power increase so very unlikely to cause damage. It’s all about the perception of faster acceleration through much more responsive throttle response!

    • @Gasser24769
      @Gasser24769 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It works with NA that’s wild , or is this the throttle one specifically,,, cos I’m looking at GTS I think it fiddles with boost sensor

    Mines just came today. But mines didnt come with the controller. Im a bit confused on that part. Where the controller box is supposed to be there's a sticker thats says "app control". I thought the XLR unit comes with the controller with the option to control it via the app

    • @JLMTAuto
      @JLMTAuto  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Dominic, I opted for app control and definitely got the controller bit - I seem to remember it was hidden with the other cables. Unless RaceChip have changed the design I’d get on to their customer support - they were really helpful with me.

    • @JLMTAuto
      @JLMTAuto  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Abid, if you were driving in S+ with the same throttle input from your foot then in theory yes you’d use more fuel :)
