Frequently Asked Questions


Q: Is the SLR Performance Chip a Universal performance chip?

At SLR Motorsports we build every SLR chip to work for each model of vehicle and then we tune each performance chip for the different engines that each model of vehicle has. We then compile the tuning software for each engine onto the chip produced for your model of vehicle. When your SLR chip is connected to your vehicle, the chip communicates with your ECU to determine what ECU part number your vehicle has. In return, the SLR chip automatically utilizes the tuning software for your EXACT engine. SLR Motorsports is the only company to use this special software that recognizes your exact engine size for your model of vehicle.
