That remains to be seen. One member had a situation where manifold pressure or an airflow sensor and boost pressure mismatched and threw a code. If they look hard enough, there is a good chance that they will find something to indicate that you have modded your vehicle. They may have ways on monitoring torque for a given throttle input or some other weird stuff like that. Truth is, I don't know what they are monitoring or what data they are logging. My only point was, if your warranty remaining "in effect" is a real concern for you, consider your choice to mod carefully. You are rolling the dice. If it wasn't a risk, no one would be concerned about it.

Does you guys support e85?
______________________________
Yes, it still works.
The code is: STINGER_FORUM
It is valid for the GTS Black for the Kia Stinger
We did not develop it for e85 and we did not test it for e85.
So I can't recommend it.
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
So I know you design your chip's with stock cars in mind but will it be safe to run say and exhaust, downpipes, intakes and intercooler core or any other aftermarket part? Or do you have tunes available with these mods?
Thanks.
Thanks.
In general, we develop our products for cars in factory setting without any modification. If you modify your car, we can't guarantee our advertised statements, because we don't know the modifications. You must distinguish between a) ecu remapping/flashing and b) other modifications.
a) If you change the software on the ECU (via remapping/flashing) we can't guarantee proper functioning. If the remapper did a bad job (remove necessary protection mechanisms and implementing dangerous functions) it could blow up your engine in the worst case. Anyway, it usually does not make much sense to use both methods. The power reserve of an engine is limited. Either you use our product to unleash this power reserve or ECU remapping/flashing.
b) If you conduct other modifications such as better air filters, cold air intake, intercooler, downpipe or other bolt on mods, it usually works. Our products come with up to 7 predefined fine-tuning mappings. It might make sense to change your mapping if you do modufications. E.g it might make sense to lower the mapping if you get an exhaust our intercooler. If you installed other performance parts and are not satisfied with the functioning of the RaceChip anymore, you can contact our customer service to get the software adapted (you need the app version so you can download the updated software. The app version is $50 on top, the customer service is free of charge). If you conduct massive changes (e.g. bigger turbocharger) it is better to directly adapt the software in the ECU.
Our throttle tuning XLR can be used in combination with any modification (incl. remapping/flashing). It's worth it!
So do you have tunes or maps for the Stinger with full bolt ons? Or and exhaust etc... Or does it custom adapt for the individual car?
We have 7 fine tuning mappings for each specific engine (in case of the app feature, only 3 are visible. You have to contact us to change them).
Those mappings don't have names such as "exhaust map". The mappings differ in performance upgrade and the characteristics (e.g. which tuning at which rpm or load). 7 Mappings are more than enough to find the fitting one for your car depending on its standard factory variation, maintenace condition, the fuel quality, bolt ons, and so on. An "exhaust map" would not make sense, because it would ignore all other influencing factors and the fact the not all exhaust systems are the same.

If you get the bluetooth version you really only have 2 (who wants eco?) Use sport for 91 octane and race for 93.
The easiest way is just testing it. Furthermore, you can ask our customer support for recommendations.
Some customer asked us for more maps in the app, so we will change it in a few months. Everybody with the app feature will be able to download this update.
Haha, maybe that's too German. In the US, we should change the name. I recently drove a Camaro. They call it "Touring" mode.
In our Eco mode, you still get a little bit more power and especially more torque. The focus is just on better MPG and not on maximum power.
Just for vehicles that are registered in Europe.
One day, we might offer it in the US, but for now we don't. The US is a complicated market when it comes to legal rules, product liability and insurance scam. In Europe, it is much more difficult to abuse such a warranty.

There never was a discount on the RS. I think you are talking about the GTS, which had a similar increase as the RS, but came for $699.
We changed the product offering a few months ago.
Of course, I can ask whether we can make a deal for the RS, too. However, I am on vacation right now, so you are welcome to ask me in 10 days again.
