100% absolutely it does. If you think Kia doesn’t know this product is out, you are insane lol. Technology has come a long way. This car is so overprotective (limp mode) it will record the abnormal high readings. It’s a 50/50 chance they could prove it, but that’s the risk you need to be willing to take. Dollar for power in terms of HP gains is one of the best one you get.
@UC2rrGpPn2jyRAtz4Dtq2IXg - are you a moron, it is recorded by the car diagnostics computer… a Kia tech would easily tell a chip was installed and removed… RaceChip themselves clearly state it voids manufacturer’s warranty on their website… read effin moron
hey man! great video! im in the market for a vehicle such as the stinger. im waiting to see what the acura type s is priced at before i pull the trigger. but i have a question about the stinger platform im hoping that you can answer. im not use to this type of tuning. is there no way to just do email tunes like on mustangs or subarus ? like get a hand held tuner do datalogs and send them in to a tuner for a more custom and precise tune? thats the only thing kinda got me worried about this platform. the aftermarket support seems to be lacking substantially vs the other platforms ive had in the past. i may be missing something tho as ive not been able to find a lot of good safe looking websites for performance parts for this platform either. any info would be greatly appreciated to help me decide on this future purchase. thanks in advance!
What your looking for is something similar to what's possible with the new lap3 pro-tuner V2. You have preset maps but you can datalog and will be able to make tune adjustments.
A friend gave me the race chip GTS Black as a gift, it looks to have lower HP numbers than other chips but higher Torque than others. What are your thoughts on this racechip, I haven't installed yet, waiting on spark plug replacements. Thank you.
@@mariobrown8185 Not the same chip box. Look it up at www.racechip.us/shop/kia/stinger-ck-from-2017/3-3-t-gdi-3342ccm-365hp-276kw-376lb-ft.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAs8XiBRAGEiwAFyQ-er39XftSK190bgERjQYk3652VsRSBTLC6V0erB4JGalfeu2XiXI_VBoCjY8QAvD_BwE
I did installed to my stinger gt2 I know that my oil temperature is over 230f After I put the racechip so is not good for the engine at all so don’t buy Plus don’t work well
@@el.chepito1985 yeah the LAP3 Protuner V2 is just amazing, stock with protuner 438 whp (thats over 500 crank) on the gt2 awd with 100 octane here in switzerland and hks spark plugs
Can this device work on a 2023 Kia Seltos SX turbo with the 1.6T
It might but id recommend reaching out to LAP3 at www.lap3usa.com
How does it compare in terms of performance against other chips?..do you need to change the spark plugs?
andrew balmain all chips need spark plugs changed. I will say it’s identical performance wise to JB4
StingerGT Channel ok great because I was planning on getting the jb4 because its about 400 vs this race chip that's like 800 right?
Kind of let man! but I need to know, does this void your warranty?
Technically it won't as once removed the ECU doesn't know it was ever there

Does Smart, Eco, Comfort and Sport mode still work in the car via the drive mode dial? Or do you need to use the app in the phone?
Thanks!
I`m curious about this too, would be nice to have a reply. :)
They would work too. The Racechip usually starts working above a certain rpm so it doesnt impede with normal engine management.
Hey I'm in the market for a tuner For my GT2! Any suggestions has it been holding up Or have you had any issues?
I always recommend the lap3 Pro-Tuner or lap3 ECU.
www.lap3usa.com
How many spark plugs did you had to change out ?
6
Will that avoid my car warranty?
Highly unlikely if you remove before going to dealer.
HELL YEA it will
Void your warranty
Yes it will. RaceChip themselves say that, don’t listen to this moron
Can you change it from performance, race, and eco quickly? And do you have to restart the vehicle to do so? Love your vids man.
Nick Parziale yes the last clip with the screen is me switching the setting via phone
You don’t restart anything,you just change it while you drive or on stand
Hi sorry this comment is late, but what spark plugs are you using/recommend
Matthew Chiate HKS ML45il
@@el.chepito1985 Did you have a shop install the plugs? If so, how much? Thx
@@clayvoigt4125 I did it myself takes less than an hour to do. A shop would probably charge an hour to two of labor time.
This works on teh Stinger 2.0? or its just for the 3.3?
Both but I suggest you pay a little more and get the LAP3 Protuner.

@@el.chepito1985 ohh OK sweet! What kinda power is this platform capable of currently? Is 500wheel hp a possibility right now? Or is that even safe
@@mattdagger1480 just under 500whp. And yeah done on several cars. And safe is relative on how crazy you want to get
Did you need to upgrade your spark plugs?
Yes. I only use HKS plugs.
How has the car held up with the racechip?
He hasn’t answered means the car is fcuk Ed up now…
A friend gave me the race chip GTS Black as a gift, it looks to have lower HP numbers than other chips but higher Torque than others. What are your thoughts on this racechip, I haven't installed yet, waiting on spark plug replacements. Thank you.
Race chip claims crank numbers so they seem higher.
@@el.chepito1985 Dang, so the claimed 57+HP and 133+lb-ft are crank and not to the wheels... thanks for the response
Did you have to buy anything else for that gain of hpw
Not really but I would highly recommend going with pro-tuner. After a few weeks on racechip car wasn't happy.
Kia Stinger GT good thx
What happened with the car and the racechip? What problems developed
@@wildazme2006 missfires and only went away once chip was removed.
Can this work with a stock GT and does it revert back to factory when unplugged or must you reset before removal?
Matthew Melendez just unplug and your back to stock.
Kia Stinger GT Hey, how does this compare to Lap3 Protuner in your opinion?? I believe the Protuner is $1200
Would you recommend doing spark plugs before the chip install? Or you think i can push a bit and just do a little later in the future
Never install any chip without upgrading the plugs first. You will have issues.
I'm sure there's a diff between the $400 and $800, quality doesn't usually cost...it pays! Car is coming along great =======
Klasse Act the polished look and the easier end used experience is worth it to some.
Once you download the apt does it instantly put the car at 428 hp.
Shouldn't. You can select setting.
No , you have to drive at least 20 to 30 miles to let the computer adjust.
Warranty wise. If I need to take it in for service can I just unplug the chip and be good to go or will they be able to tell?
Thats been my thing also, can they find out.
Yes easily found out
Is this the best tune you’ve had? How much does it cost?
D J this is the most expensive chip I have had but I would honestly put it on par to JB4 as far as performance goes but it is a lot more user friendly
StingerGT Channel which plugs do you recommend and does the chip interfere with the factory drive modes?
D J HKS plugs and drive modes still do what they do.
COME ON DYNO RESULTS OF THE RACECHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D PLS
Nicholas Semianiw look at one of my other videos. It’s there
Couldn't help but notice your Injen intakes! Been waiting for them or Stillen. How do you like them?
Jon Man love em they look great and and add a bit of noise but not too much
StingerGT Channel Yes, prefer the aesthetics on Injen more than Stillen. Any ETA on their release?
Jon Man not sure
Does this work on the V4 Engine ?
Ahmed AlMarri I4 and yes with lower results though.
@@el.chepito1985 do you know the numbers for 4cyl turbo and any tips for it? Thanks

I did installed to my stinger gt2
I know that my oil temperature is over 230f
After I put the racechip so is not good for the engine at all so don’t buy
Plus don’t work well
Have you have any issues with it? I am thinking of getting this for my veloster N
Save your money. Buy a lap3 pro-tuner instead.
i dont like the idea of having those cables in my engine bay for sone reason it bothers me thats why i want a real ecu tune
I recommend you get the lap3 ECU tune
Plug and play and lots of positive reviews.
why don't you just get the protune? you need a dyno-tune bro
Cam sensor reads your timing , which is very important.
Great vid, just sucks you cant hear that much. Need a mic!
Edgar Alarcon i bought a cheap one and it helped off a bit but it broke. I need a new one
That tip isn’t useless! It’s a shortcut to revert the car to stock.
Should of got jb4
Cars Are Everything i do have that as well. They both perform the same. Going with the superior ProTuner though.
@@el.chepito1985 yeah the LAP3 Protuner V2 is just amazing, stock with protuner 438 whp (thats over 500 crank) on the gt2 awd with 100 octane here in switzerland and hks spark plugs
