A Unichip Easy Connect and Plug ‘n Play is a specialised wiring loom that is manufactured by Dastek.

Normally, a performance engineer would wire the Unichip directly into your vehicle’s wiring system. This can take a while to do and cannot be removed easily.

With a Unichip Easy Connect  & Powerplug, the Unichip is wired into a custom-designed wiring loom than is separate from the vehicle’s own wiring system. This loom is fitted with the same plugs as your vehicle’s electronic plugs, which means that you can simply plug it into your own vehicle’s wiring system when fitting it and you can remove it at any time.

The fitment of a Unichip with a Unichip Easy Connect or Powerplug is easy, reliable, fast and you can remove it at any time when you want to service or replace your vehicle.

The power increase from your Unichip will vary, based on the vehicles state of tune (how well it is tuned from the factory or how much wear and tear has taking its toll), type of engine and prevailing conditions and fuel in your country.

In some instances, we see peak power only increase by a few percentage points on normally aspirated engines, but low down power and responsiveness improves hugely. With turbo-charged vehicles (petrol and diesel) we see the Unichip on average safely and effectively extract between 10-15 % more power from your vehicle. Safely optimally tuned, no empty promises.

Dastek manufactures pre-fitted Unichip Easy Connect systems that are already fitted with a Unichip.

You are however free to purchase the Unichip and Unichip Easy Connect independently from each other, which simply means that your performance specialist will have to wire the Unichip into the Unichip Easy Connect loom before fitting it to your vehicle.

No wires on your vehicle are cut or damaged when you fit a Unichip Easy Connect System to your vehicle.

Despite the safety of a Unichip and the fact that you are not cutting any wires in the vehicle’s wiring loom, it is not approved by vehicle manufacturers and may affect your vehicle’s warranty. In spite of this fact, the Unichip Easy Connect system is easy to remove and reinstall by simply reconnecting it to your vehicle.

Unichip is a piggyback system THAT CAN BE INSTALLED ON ANY VEHICLE WITH AN ECU, which means that it does not permanently change or reprogram the inputs from your vehicle’s electronic control unit (ECU). The system simply intercepts the signals, changes them as required and sends them to the various engine components.

If your Unichip has been fitted directly onto the vehicle, it is permanently fixed to the wiring harness. If you have opted for a Unichip Easy Connect, you can plug it in and remove it as you wish, such as when you take your vehicle for a service or replace your vehicle.

There are many reasons why you would opt for a Unichip and Unichip Easy Connect. Most importantly, the Unichip is a fully reprogrammable computer that takes virtually every engine signal into consideration.

Many performance chips simply increase the fuel pressure, boost and throttle input. The feeling of power is great, but there is nothing that monitors the engine temperature, changes inputs for different driving needs, measures over-fuelling and the fuel-air mixture or the many other elements that are required to deliver safe power.

In contrast, a Unichip considers everything that happens in your vehicles engine while you are driving.  Unichip allows the performance upgrade specialist to safely and reliably get more power from your engine.

Put simply, a Unichip will behave differently when you drive with a cold engine than when you are cruising on the highway. It will also manage fuel pressure under load and with no load differently, to prevent over-fuelling and overheating.

You can also add different performance maps onto one Unichip (depending on the model). Many new Unichip systems offer a standard map, safety map (that cuts all power), a high-performance map and, on some vehicles, a technical off road map.

Ask your local performance specialist of more benefits of the Unichip and Unichip Easy Connect system.

Please note that the high-performance fitment centres may require your vehicle to be tested on the dynamometer for optimal performance and this may require a short wait depending on your chosen dealership.
