but why take it so personally if you are happy with the product and it works fine on your car?

i mean me and RR didn't get the "claimed" numbers but we both feel it works fine and goes damn well on the road!

just go out there and enjoy your car.   :smiley:

Don't worry about the ribbing Blue and Telboy.

I took a bit when my ED30 was beaten by 1bhp at Awesome by Gaz :smiley:

I only found out later that the map had reverted back to safe mode. Now look at my results :cool:

Not forgetting the horrible "clutch slip" era (and it did feel like an ERA!! :sick:) and the banter that went with it.

Everyone can get some issues with outputs, but it is the "seat of the pants dyno" that you need to enjoy :wink:

Eventually things get sorted. You just need to keep the faith :cool:

im not taking it personally, i just feel such comments help nobody

ps, im no superchips fanboy, its no great secret i have been considering a Revo for a month or so now (although there figures arent much better than the Bluefins on JKM's rollers), that said i still say the Bluefin feels fine on the road, , anyway i will keep my gob shut

RR - we will have to agree to disagree , I for one have never believed either Awesome or JKM have shown 'true' results just because they either match or dont the OE declared power figure. Not to mention they shouldnt match as OE figures are taken with the engine out of the car in very diff conditions!

Hurdy - nice post , I think we have a wealth of information to celebrate , esp rolling road figures.
Nice comparison graphs
As you say you took the 'era' in your stride and are to be congratulated for the way you did so when it didnt go to plan all the time.

theres more RR days to come , so its gonna be fun  :grin:

I'm not really interested in getting involved in the REVO vs Bluefin debate but I do think you should bear in mind that they are different products with slightly different aims.

BF - Designed to be sold to virtually anyone anywhere in the world who has acces to a postal delivery and the internet.  It provides a nice increase over stock with the minimum of effort and hassle.

REVO - I've said this many times before, much more suited to those that wish to take their car further, the ability for the user to adjust and modify the boost, timing and fuel makes it a very adaptable remap that will evolve as your car does.  Downside, well it requires a visit to a dealer for installation and you need to buy the Select Plus to realise it's true potential.

Lets not all be so hasty in bashing the BF boys, SC are a decent company and I am sure they will be interested in helping their customers.
