Improve performance with the touch of a button!
It’s really that easy – with the RICA PPC Tuning System.

How it Works:
The RICA PPC Tuning System allows you to switch between standard software and RICA performance software with the touch of a button. You also have the option to revert your car back to the standard software in minutes, whenever you wish. Updates for your car are easily downloaded over the Internet, assuring your vehicle is equipped with the latest software available from RICA.


Unlike with other tuning companies, you are never left without a car while your ECU is shipped out for programming. The RICA PPC Tuning System is truly the most convenient product on the market!

Rica PPC Tuning System Benefits:

• Tune the car yourself via the OBD2 diagnostics port
• Ability to quickly revert back to the stock program anytime
• Download free internet updates when available
• Custom tuning for any other modifications you have

Tuning Options:
The RICA PPC Tuning System is the only system available that can store custom written software to enhance the performance from other hardware upgrades to your car (such as a performance downpipe or exhaust, front mount intercooler, larger turbocharger, etc).

What’s Included:
You receive the PPC unit, a hand-held device that plugs directly into your OBD-2 diagnostics port, a USB cable, and the PPC Sync software, a Windows®-based application for communicating with the PPC unit. RICA performance software is downloaded from the Internet via the PPC Synch software, and saved to your PPC unit.
