Default APR 1 Bar Chip Installed Today.

I just installed my Apr Chip 1 Bar and it is awesome. The power is there and it increases gradually. If I push it too hard, the front wheels go out of control. I usually can't do this without the chip. I have the 180 fwd TTR. I wanted to know if anyone got the Race feature with their chip (EMCS). On my order sheet, they put that my 3rd mode was a Race program. For some reason, my Valet feature was not installed. Maybe they made a mistake? Maybe the race is actually valet, but they just got it confused? Anyhow, I want to know if anyone got that Race feature yet on their TTR fwd? Thanks..

Default no -- i have stock, performance, and valet...

you should contact them to be sure of what they sent you because the race mode requires a minimum of 100 octane fuel.

enjoy the apr chip -- it makes a huge difference!

Thanks. Question? I was wondering if I tested the race mode to see if it was Valet, would it be a good idea? I know that I need 100 octance, but I just want to rev the engine to see if it goes up to 4000 and then cut. Or should I just wait?

Default if your car pings like hell, you've got race mode. MHO....
