CarBahn Performance Controller (CPC):

The CPC is a plug-and-play ECU that increases boost pressure in turbocharged cars to dramatically increase HP and Torque. The unit has selectable maps through a Bluetooth app on your smartphone. You can download these apps for your smartphone through the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.

Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tuning-pro/id1508035080
Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sve.gmbh.tuningpro&hl=en_US&gl=US

These maps are designed to accommodate different octane fuels for additional increased performance. You can choose between 91, 93, and 100 Octane.

As with all CarBahn products, an optional powertrain warranty can be purchased.

If you want to trade your CarBahn Performance Controller for software in the future, there is a $250 upgrade fee, and if you purchased the warranty, it is transferable to the software at no additional charge!

Emissions legality:

A note on downpipes (removing the catalyst): We have run back-to-back dyno runs with the cat on and off, and the power gain is much smaller than most people claim, usually around 11hp. We all need to breathe the air. It is difficult to get your car its required emissions test without a catalyst, and it is illegal.

Warranty Information:

*Warranty valid on U.S. and Canadian specification vehicles only. If your vehicle is currently covered by the vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty, CarBahn products are warranted for the remaining term of the vehicle manufacturer’s new car limited warranty.

The manufacturer’s new car warranty is limited to 4 years or 50,000 miles (80,000 kilometers in Canada), commencing on the date of first retail sale or the date the vehicle is first placed in-service as a demonstrator or company vehicle, whichever is earlier. CarBahn warranties are transferable when ownership of the vehicle is sold. The warranty will, without charge for parts or labor, repair or replace the defective CarBahn component(s), as well as any original vehicle manufacturer’s component(s) that may have been directly affected by a CarBahn component, using new or authorized remanufactured parts. The decision to repair or replace said parts is at the sole discretion of CarBahn. Parts replaced under this limited warranty become the property of CarBahn.

If your vehicle is outside of the manufacturer’s new car limited warranty, for two (2) years from the original purchase date of the CarBahn product, CarBahn will repair or replace, at its sole discretion, any defective CarBahn component. This warranty does not include reimbursement for repairs to any original vehicle manufacturer’s component(s) that may have been affected by a CarBahn component.

Warranty exclusions:

Return shipping charges, towing charges, rental car fees, damage to a component or assembly due to the installation of replacement parts with specifications that differ from the original, unauthorized modifications, misuse, improper installation, damage caused by other manufacturer’s products, or competitive track use. The warranty excludes normal wear and tear items like spark plugs, fluids, belts, or light bulbs.
