Anyone try the "race chip" tuner? Site states a gain of 50 Hp and Tq. What's a good tuner for the 1.4? What can gains can one expect? https://www.racechip.us/shop/jeep/renegade-from-2014/1-4-t-1368ccm-160hp-118kw-184lb-ft.html
The prices are about right, but I can't speak to the company, I don't know of them. I'll admit, if I had a 1.4T, I'd give them a try. I like that it is an in-line module instead of a flash. ... for the price. I have used the Maddness AUTOFLASH with good results. Madnees has a tuner also, a bit more expensive, good reviews, but they don't talk HP gains. ... in-line module also. https://madnessautoworks.com/jeep-r...maxpower-by-madness-bluetooth-control-pid4110
These guys have quite a bit for the Fiat/Dodge/Jeep 1.4T, but I haven't seen any videos for the Rene specifically. Their work with the same motor in the Dart, Fiat 500 and 124 is pretty impressive though. https://damnfastdd.com/BrowseProducts/ShowCategories/Renegade+1.4T The tuner is shown in the 500 section, and claims a +30 hp/tq on 91 octane. https://damnfastdd.com/Products/Show/Fiat+500+1.4+Turbo+Handheld+Tuner The turbo upgrade is supposed to work with the stock tune and crank out 250-260 WHP. https://damnfastdd.com/Products/Show/1.4T+Super+Stocker+Turbo
So does anyone have experience with any of the above options? I know the 1.4 is shared on a couple of vehicles, but I'd love to see some use in an actual Renegade before jumping into something like that.
