Hope you're gonna do a plenum, filters and charge pipes while you're in there.

No error codes so far.
It starts and cranks Okay.
The car is still @ the garage. I'll pick it up tmrw. btw I live in South Korea Labor isnt painful as much as US.

Ok keep us posted. Looking forward to your first impressions. I agree with R-rated. I would do the IPD plenum, and BMC air filter at least while the rear bumper is off. Might as well.
Im still concerned about the camera and parking sensor calibration when the bumper comes completely off. It most likely will be ok though

See the last pic I posted. You can see BMC decals on the floor and red plastic things under the hood. That's BMC filter YEZZZ

Well..the plenum and charge pipes...I'd like to avoid them

Why avoid them? Less risky than a tune.

Attached the instructions for the install. Looks much simpler to me than these guys made it look.

Because I had to remove more stuff to get fitted BMC air filter.
Also, some of those plugs are located in tricky position..

hmmm the installation completed and nothing went wrong but i could not get any single bluetooth signal from the box. my box doesnt hav an analog dial so it shld be working with bluetooth function.
ive tried several cell phones to look for Rennchip box signal but had no luck.
but it seems the box is working great as advertised. the car runs totally ok without any error codes. and i even feel it pulls alot more than stock. i cant show u guys any numbers yet hopefully ill get dynoed soon. anyway its kinda weird..
ive contacted Rennchip to discuss about this issue on the phone but no one answered. So i emailed them again.
now im awaiting any response from Rennchip.

Are you using the app? Scan or type in the serial number on the Rennchip box in the Speed Buster app if you haven’t tried that yet?
