Such a plug located in the middle of a rail can be headed downwards, straight or upwards.

3 Common Rail. Common Rail System has already been used since 1997, after 2001 it has been installed in each car with a diesel engine (the exception is the VAG Group in which the device appeared after 2008 originally fuel injection units were used there.) Engines with feed system of Common Rail type are distinguished by (in comparison with feed systems of former types): steadier engine work, better fuel consumption, high thermodynamic effi ciency, lower heat emission, softer noise, less exhaust emission, ease about reaching performance parameters (power, torque.) One of the main features of Common Rail system is the possibility to create constant pressure regardless of the torque. It is possible basing on maps recorded in an engine control unit. Common Rail system enables control of high pressure basing on the data from a pressure sensor. The photos below present Common Rail bar with a plugin at the end. This is a plug of already mentioned pressure sensor. The plug may be located in the middle of the rail. Such a plug located in the middle of a rail can be headed downwards, straight or upwards. When there are 2 plugs on a rail and we do not know which we should connect ChipBox ProRacing CR1 v.2 to, it is advisable to contact the dealer. Remember! Engines powered with Common Rail system demand good quality diesel oil, injectors work at high pressure, each contamination of fuel may cause damages. Attention! Please become acquainted with the whole manual before starting assembly and usage. This guide presents the assembly and tuning procedures of ChipBox ProRacing CR1 v.2. 3

4 4 Typical location of the fuel pressure sensor connection.

5 Strips on the plugs. It can happen that the chip with cables we received for ChipBox ProRacing CR- 10MAP device differs slightly from the one we have in a car. For the reason of import of cars from different countries it happens sometimes that car subassemblies can differ a bit. In such situation we usually remove the strips on the plugs. The strips are only for the robots in a factory during assembling cars allowing to plug the connector in a proper way. During a car usage the strips are useless and the plug is pinned the same and is equally water-resistant and reliable. Removing the strips is very simple. We remove only the strips on the plugs delivered with a device. There is no need to interfere into plugs in a car. We need a sharp tool (a knife for fi tting carpets for example or a scalpel.) There can be 1,2, or 4 little strips as in the picture below: Attention! Take every precaution! The act performed with a sharp tool. Using protective gloves recommended. 5

6 Easy and quick assembly of ChipBox CR1 v.2 in 5 steps. 1 Make sure the car is not working and all electric elements are in an OFF position. The key in the ignition ought to be in an OFF position, no devices such as navigation, car radio, air- conditioning, internal lighting etc. ought to be working. If a car is not started with a key, the power ought to be cut off with a START/STOP button or by removing a card. 2 After removing the engine compartment cover locate the common rail (main element of an injection system). There is a pressure sensor on the rail. Its location is shown in a detailed manual attached to the kit Notice! the location may be different for different models of cars. 3 Unpin a plug from the indicated pressure sensor on the common rail. On the plug there are latches or metal clasps. They should be unpinned before trying to unplug the connector from a socket. The attempt to disconnect the plug without former unpinning may cause its permanent damage. 4 Connect a female plugin with a free socket of a pressure sensor on the common rail. Notice there is a characteristic sound of click of a clasp while pinning. It guarantees certainty of connection. 5 Connect a male plugin with the plug formerly unpinned from the pressure sensor and then connect the cable with ChipBox CR1 v2. After completing the connection correctly switch on the ignition (turn the key in the ignition not starting the engine!) The device should be started. The proper connection is indicated with a glowing diode. When the diode starts glowing you can start the engine! Otherwise check all connections of plugins. 6

7 Proper connecting. On the rail there is usually one plug it is a plug of fuel pressure sensor and we connect ChipBox ProRacing CR1 v.2 to the plug exactly. The assembly was described step by step on the previous page. Attention! During assembly make sure the ChipBox plugin you connect exactly the same way as the original plugin in the car is installed it is presented in the picture beside. When the plugins are installed the other way, the diode on ChipBox ProRacing CR1 v.2 is not going to glow. Do not turn the engine on! The car is not going to start and at the attempt of starting the engine some mistakes indicated by CHECK ENGINE warning light may occur later. When the device should be tuned. When after installing our device the glow plugs indicator or the CHECK ENGINE indicator start glowing, the engine works unsteadily or while accelerating it does not reach the high speed, the tuning should be done. To do so, there is an adjusting screw presented in the picture. It should be turned every 2 full turns to the right (clockwise) till the moment the symptoms disappear. However, when you feel too little increase of power after installing our device, the screw should be turned to the left every 2 full turns maximum till 10 full turns. After completing 2 turns, work of the chip should be tested. The adjustment will make the chip ProRacing is going to be better tuned to your engine. The adjustment is performed with engine switched off. 7

8 Untypical installation in 1.6 HDI engines. ProRacing ChipBox CR1 v.2 generally is very simple. Unfortunatelly, there are always exceptions to the rule. There are cars in which the plug is located behind an engine or in other diffi cult to reach places. The most common problem according the location of the pressure sensor is in cars of PSA group (Citroen, Peugeot) with 1.6 i 1.4 HDi engines. 1.6 HDi engines we can spot also in Ford (e.g. Ford Focus), Mazda (e.g. Mazda 3), Suzuki (e.g. SX4 since 2006), Volvo (e.g.volvo V40) Mini (since ) More time is required during installation in these cars. Sometimes help of a mechanic is needed. The biggest diffi culty is the need to remove the battery with the base or the air fi lter. It is necessary to be able to reach the plug. Installation step by step. 1. Remove the battery and its plastic tray. 2. After removing the battery and its tray, a metal base which was underneath should be dismantled. It is held by a few screws. When despite unscrewing all visible bolts the base can not be removed, it may appear that there additional hidden bolts may be placed beneath, which go from a wheel house shell. It is common in cars of PSA group (Peugeot, Citroen.) 3. Now, when the base of the battery is removed you have an access to a fuel pressure sensor on a Common Rail. The picture beside presents its location just above the cover of a fl ywheel. 4. Remove the plug. If there is a yellow plastic element on the plug it means that a clasp on the plug should be PRESSED with a fi nger and not until then pull to remove it (the plug can be checked with a mirror or a keyhole camera.) If the plug does not have a yellow element you should prise the clasp on the plug off and then pull it. Before disconnecting the plug it is recommended to train it using similar ones 8

9 placed in an engine compartment. When the plug is placed in a way that unables prising the clasp with a fi nger you should use a hooked tool or a wire loop or a line to catch the clasp and pull. Remember! Trying to remove an unpinned plug may cause it would clench even tighter. Before removing it it is advisable to press the plug into the socket to ease the clasp. 5. After disconnecting the plug, pin ProRacing ChipBox CR1 v.2 into the sensor according to the manual on page 6. FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions. Q Q: A A: Q Q: A A: Should the device be constantly plugged into a common rail? Yes, the device must be constantly plugged into the sensor of a common rail. When you disconnect the device the car returns to its factory settings. Should I turn the engine off before adjusting? Yes. To let ChipBox ProRacing CR1 v.2 device work properly the engine should be turned off each time before adjusting. Then we can be sure that the modifi cation is going to impact ECU correctly in a car. Q A Q: Despite switching the engine off the diode on the device is still glowing. Can the situation cause discharging the battery in my car? A: No. The diode in the device takes minimum electricity. After switching the engine off the computer automatically cuts the power off in a car system. It disappears after some defi ned time, it can happen after 10 minutes or just 1 minute. It is dependent on a model of a car and solutions applied in it. Did you know: Car producers designing their power units are very cautious. Engines are so strong as the market demands, emissions standards or parameters of a current model. The truth is almost all power units have a far greater potential, just it is limited by producers. One thing is certain! Your engine is worth much more! 9
