RaceChip Ultimate - did I do it right?

Hello,

I believe I got everything wired up correctly. no Check engine light and the car is definitely losing traction more often .

However, is there supposed to be any LED on the box itself?

Also, when i try to connect to the app, it says serial invalid. Any idea?

They emailed me back saying my particular one has the older PCB and doesn't have Bluetooth.

All good, not really fussed about it. The power gain however is so much fun!

I also see you have a RC Ultimate... What setting do you run it on?

What i see is that you leave S1 alone but change S2? My S2 is still what i got it from them.

I recently also got one and definitely i felt an improvement. You just change S2 dial only. Rightnow I have it on stock settting (letter B). I will change it to D in the next few weeks and see the improvements.

Is there a list anywhere that shows what each change does? Like B to C to D ?

You can increase the dial even if you dont have mods (like me). Afaik the RC can addapt to mods you install later.
