About Rocket Chip Performance Tuning
RC engineers began tuning street and race cars, over 25 years ago as a hobby, and have been in the automotive & motorsport business as participants and consultants for automotive R&D and special projects. Our efforts have included drag bike racing by supporting AMA Prostar "Promod & Funnybike" projects with digital fuel injection engine management. We have experience tuning anything (open or closed loop) from 9 sec. snowmobiles, to european and domestic cars & trucks. RC's owner holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering, and specializes in automotive powertrain, propulsion, and suspension technologies. RC is not only a tuner, but also an R&D design facility that can develop hardware using cad/cam tools and FEA capabilities. RC also has a sister company Proto-tronics to develop circuit boards for data acquisition and small automotive projects. Electronics and software development is necessary to support RC's racing projects, as well as street applications.
RocketChip specializes in products that bring the best available tuning alternatives and always stays one step ahead of the competition. Our latest successful efforts include the euro firmware upgrades for our US gas and diesel Vag/Bosch cars. We found that because euro cars have a different duty cycle than our US counterparts, they are tuned very different (ie. stronger).
RC maintains the latest tuning equipment, and software tools and has the capability for obd2 serial programming in your car, or on our automotive "Hot Bench" for mail order customers. We restore engine ecu's, clusters, and radios. We understand vag immobilizer cars, and can provide login codes and restore components that have lost their adaptation properties.
RC has the highest quality tuning products that do not waste fuel, cause protect-mode shut downs or throw CEL's. We support offroad applications as well as your daily driver. Our clients and sponsorships include: ProRally, supermileage, dragracing, and Land speed record vehicles.
