RaceChip GTS Black G30 M550 results...
Hello all,
I wanted to share my results for RaceChip GTS Black on my G30 M550 that I purchased from Ben r33_RGSport Equipment: - 2015 F10 550i, retired, JB+, DashCommand - 2018 G30 M550, current car, RaceChip GTS Black on Map 7, Dragy Testing conditions: April 2016 for F10, outside Temp around 45F April 2019 for G30, outside Temp between 41 and 48F I have been taking the same route to work for the last 6 years. Testing was done on the same stretch of the road, similar weather conditions and the same distance from home. This is true for the Stock/Tuned pulls on G30 as well as original testing with my F10. F10 info was detailed in the following post. https://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1246548 Last Thursday I received Dragy and tested the car in stock mode. I performed five back to back 60-100mph pulls. The range was 5.47 to 5.67 seconds. Which is 0.2 seconds faster than my F10 550i with JB+. This just proves the fact that G30 M550 is way underrated. I installed RaceChip GTS Black over the weekend. Install was as easy as described in the instruction that Ben sent me, about 30min. I was able to skip step 4 that required the removal of the air boxes. On Monday, with the similar weather and on the same stretch of the road, I performed five 60-100 pulls back to back. The range was 4.78 to 4.95 seconds. What can I say; I was not expecting 0.7 sec improvements with RaceChip from 60-100mph, especially since JB+ gave me 0.5sec on my old car. Power delivery is a smooth as stock, midrange is definitely improved. Coming from the standstill and using Launch Control, I now have a slight wheel spin. Attached are the Dragy screenshots of the best 60-100 pulls, stock and with RaceChip GTS Black. |

Does anyone have a way to calculate the HP gain based on these results?? I have one that works for 0-60mph times, but 60-100mph is much different.

At the same time, if I dropped 0.7sec from stock and you dropped another 0.5sec... that means that you dropped more than 1sec in 1/4 mile... considering stock car does 12.1-12.2 and the fastest we have seen is 10.9 on the dragy with stage 2 flash... either you have m850 engine or something is going on... lol Have you tried doing a few runs in stock mode... if not, can you? Would love to see the delta the same way I showed in my testing. I am in northwest suburbs, let's meet up for a run. |

I did 0-60 and couldn't do better then 3.69... so not sure how would the 1/4 go. I'm planning to visit Great Lakes Strip pretty soon if you want to join. |

You would expect the flash to be faster, but not knowing the stock 60-100 time, it is hard to judge. If the user dropped 1.2 sec 60-10, that means he has 10 sec 1/4, something that is not possible for stage 1 flash. Plus, he only did one run and sometimes you see flukes... one of my runs was 4.1 and I ignored it. |

It would be better if you guys stuck to 60-130mph which is the standard benchmark everyone uses. 60-100 doesn't tell much. I've gotten 60-100 better than F90 yet my 60-130 was worse. For reference my car does 60-100 in about 3.9. If 60-130 Is too much for you then do 100-200km/h which also everyone uses and can compare easily

My apologies for the "fluke" reference... I was referring to my 4.1sec 60-100 run.
4.3 is awesome... you should be about 3-4 car length ahead of me since I am at 4.8. Let me know next time you are planning to Great Lake track. |

Can you share the specific RaceChip installation instruction for G30 M550i. The instructions provided online is generic and not applicable to M550.
Thank you, |

Thanks, so I assume that RGSports did the installation for u. In other words, u didn’t buy it directly from them and installed it yourself.
Will wait for RGSports to respond |
