Racechip RS installed Today Audi A3 2011 TDI 2.0 CR 8P

Very dissapointed as NO performance gain at all.
I ve got the one with the phone app so I tried all settings including Race 5+ and no positive results.
Will be possible that after the VW scandal and CPU recode by the dealer it wont let the chip do its job like it should.
I heard that after the dealer CPU recode they de-tuned the vehicles slightly

I still have 10 days to return it.
I noticed that when I set it in race mode the DSG hits the torque limiter but I 'm unable to feel the power (very frustrating)
I would like the Kerma Q-pro but it will void my extended emission warranty
No options

You don't have to call Kerma, you could call TDTuning, or Rocketchip, or even Malone, but the short version is send that piece of crap Racechip back to where it came from.
