I just bought this car what exactly does this chip do ? Im a female but I’m still interested in what it makes it do or what’s it for?

Just came here after 3 years to update everyone. I already had an AEM CAI installed when I installed this product and I will say I've driven several times from NJ to Florida and back without any issues. I never got any codes and it didn't void my warranty. However, I do recommend you put that cap that comes with it on when take it to the dealer so that everything appears stock. I also want to mention that on those trips it greatly improved MPG on the highway, especially just cruising with the cruise control on as opposed to before the mod. And finally...... The question everyone's been wondering...... Does it add hp and make the car faster? It does. Just not dramatically. The car is definitely way peppier. It does have a little more boost. But its not something crazy. Its definitely noticable. Just don't expect to break your neck with the g forces or something. And now ... Would I get it again or recommend others to get it? I mean... I personally probably would have just gone with the Tri tune instead. But if you've got the money to spare or find a good deal, why not? It definitely makes the car a little more fun to drive. Go for it, if you've got the money. If you don't, save up and go for the full tri tune instead. The tri tune takes into account exhaust mods and intake mods specifically and it has the option to disable the autostart/stop. That's why I would have gone with that instead in retrospect.

Are there any dangers to doing this to the 2019 LS with a CVT?

Would this work on the 2020 RS model?

Will this work if I have a throttle booster hooked to the odb port since this hooks to engine just asking if you know it will work for both

What kind of horsepower gains are you looking at with this for a 2016 Malibu ls 1.5 Turbo....is it over 50hp gans or under

Will this work on my 2017 Malibu Premier 2.0l turbo?

Will this work on my 1.5 turbo 2019 equinox? 🤔

So I have everything connected and been driving in "sport" mode which I believe is the default setting. How long before I can switch to "race" mode? Like when you say the car needs "some time to adapt", how long is that? I'm using the Malibu 1.5 racechip and I have an AEM short ram intake.

I would check with your warranty contract to see if adding a piggy back unit will void it. Do note, since we are a piggyback unit, if you spend a few minutes to remove the RaceChip before you take it in for service, the mechanic or technician will have no idea that the RaceChip was ever installed. You simply unplug the RaceChip from the sensors and re-insert the OEM plug. Most cars take 15-20 minutes to perform the un-installation. Once removed the RaceChip is virtually untraceable.
