This is garbage.
1. Remapping an engine costs time and money and lots of dyno time. Who here thinks they went out and got a CX-5 to do this? Nutcrack bike enthusiasts volunteer their brand spanking
new bikes to be used as a dyno test rig, in exchange for the free exhaust pipe that gets made. I don't think there's a Joe Family with car payments who would do the same.
2. Your CX-5 is stock. Fuel re-map only works one of two ways - to address engine modifications (usually for racing), or to at least get rid of the emissions/noise testing flat spot.
3. Your CX-5 is already a 'high performance' stock motor that happens to be tuned for fuel efficiency and designed to last as long as your payments. Note that one of the first things a tuner will do is to lower the head to raise compression. The skyactiv is already a high compression engine! This performance aspect is lost on a lot of people , but your engine already hits above it's weight.
i can go on and on but the acid test is this:
If this were a true, bonafide product, they, or more better, externals, would post dyno charts of stock CUV's without the chip VS. stock CUV's with the chip.
You will never see this because well, no one races these CUV's, so there's no demand for this sort of thing. The very fact that it would be 'stock' vs 'stock' should say everything.
This chip is a waste of your money. If you want performance, keep the trunk empty and use the full powerband (rev the snot out of it).
