Important information
Please read this installation guide carefully before you start the
installation. The assembly normally requires a couple of minutes.
Open the bonnet, close all doors and wait approx. 5 minutes
before you start the assembly so that there is no residual
current owing on the Common-Rail-Sensor.
If the vehicle has been moved before the installation,
please ensure that the engine is cooled down to
prevent any burn.
The function of the blind-plug is to reset the car to its original
condition (without tuning) by executing only a few steps. So
please remove the RaceChip Pro 2 with ignition o and sub-
stitute it with the blind-plug.
The factory setting of the RaceChip is a recommended
mixture of improved power, increase in torque as well as
potential fuel saving.
Due to the advanced RaceChip technology it is possible to
adjust it individually to your vehicle and your driving style
respectively. It is regulated by rotary control switches on the
circuit board inside the casing. The corresponding instruc-
tions can be found from page 8-10.
Please take care not to install the RaceChip too close to heat
sources. The cable of the RaceChip is to be led downwards.
For maximum motor safety, the maintenance intervals of
the vehicle manufacturer have to be observed, the oil types
specied by the manufacturer have to be used and
especially the oil changes prescribed by the manufacturer
have to be carried out regularly while using the RaceChip.
1. Approach the car with appropriate
tools. Please open the bonnet and
remove the motor cover (if any).
2. Now you can see the motor block.
Look for the Common-Rail-Pipe.
There‘s a 3-pin plug characterized by
an oversized nut directly on this pipe.
This plug has to be a 3-pin by all
means.
3. Please disconnect the 3-pin plug.
Insert the plug of the cable harness
into the sensor.
Remove motor cover and
locate the Common-Rail-Sensor

Installation and testing of cable harness
and commissioning the RaceChip
4. Please connect the disconnected
plug of your vehicle with the counter-
part of supplied cable harness.
Please make sure that a clear „click“
sound can be heard when you plug
the connections.
5. The cable harness is now installed.
Please connect the RaceChip Pro 2
with the cable harness. The plug will
only t one way.
Finally, press the colored locking-plug
into the plug.
6. Assemble the cable harness with
the cable ties. An assembly to already
existing harnesses will be
advantageous.
Factory setting of your RaceChip
We deliver the RaceChip with a setting appropriate for your vehicle.
This setting is the optimal adjustment of your vehicle software to
the RaceChip software and perfectly combines the following points:
longevity of your motor, reasonable - but not maximum - performance
output as well as fuel saving.

Fine-tuning of your RaceChip
Rotary switch S2
This rotary control switch is responsible for the duration of
the performance increase, thus how long the performance
increase shall be available for the rpm-range. Normally, you
don‘t need to adjust it.
Rotary switch S1
With this rotary control switch you can increase or reduce
the power stepwise. Please only adjust the rotary control
switch step-by-step.
Example: The factory setting of the rotary control switch S1
is on position „B“. If you want to increase the performance,
please go to position „C“. The result is a performance
increase of 1.5 % compared with the factory setting.
On position „D“ you have increased the performance by
additional 1.5%. Each clockwise rotation to the next position
increases the performance by 1.5 %.
The RaceChip Pro 2 will be delivered with an adjustment appropriate for your vehicle. In rare cases, a too high or too low per-
formance output due to manufacturer-determined serial tolerances might occur. This might likewise result in error messages
on the vehicle‘s display.
However, you have the possibility to correct it easily and in only a few steps by the rotary control switch. Please open the
RaceChip on the front side to make the adjustments. You require a torx T10.

FAQ
The cable harness doesn‘t match my vehicle.
By means of the installation guide please check with whether the installation position is correct. By email you should have
received pictures of your motor to help with the assembly. Our technical department will certainly assist you if this is not the
case. There are only 3-pin plugs in V6 or V8 motor vehicles.
I can‘t feel an improved performance.
Each vehicle has certain performance tolerances determined by the
manufacturer. This results in a dierent performance transfer from the RaceChip to the vehicle. Therefore, you have the possi-
bility to adjust the RaceChip. The corresponding instructions can be found on pages 8 - 10.
An error message appears on the display of the dashboard.
With installation of a RaceChip, the safety programmes (emergency program) of your vehicle aren’t switched o - this is a
great advantage for you. When the malfunction light of the motor shows up on your cockpit it normally means that the Race-
Chip provides too much performance. You should slightly reduce the power of the RaceChip. The corresponding instructions
can be found on pages 8 - 10.
