Title: Another Revo question
Post by: GotaGTI on 10 June 2005, 20:54: :embarassed:

OK guys a dumb question from a new GTI owner :wink:

Thinking of having a Revo remap done :tongue:

But don't want to do much more, What else Is the minimum I need to do

ie Forge Dump valve, CAI, Exhaust etc :undecided:

I don't want to bugger up the motor but what's the minimum I can get away with after an Revo remap :huh:

Post by: noobdubber on 10 June 2005, 21:02: As far as I have gathered, you only need a forge dump valve, cos the VW wont last long with the extra power. You are better off getting a 4 bar fuel regulator aswell, you get an extra 15bhp for Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£50.
If you get the CAI, and the cat replacement exhaust, you can get an extra 10-15% more power. My revo dealer said if I get the stage 1, then get the exhaust and cai later, he'll upgrade for free

Post by: kingsmk2 on 10 June 2005, 21:16: increased fuel pressure means you can generally run higher boost thus meaning more ponies,,

Post by: GotaGTI on 10 June 2005, 21:18: OK but what is it exactly :huh:
Title: Re: Another Revo question
Post by: kingsmk2 on 10 June 2005, 21:23: fuel pressure is regulated by the fpr and what it does is ensure u maintain a constant pressure... by increasing the pressure the fuel flow into the cylinders will be greater and more of a mist improving the combustion... when running more fuel u can increase airflow and in turbo turms u can increase the boost pressure being fed into the cylinder aswell... so go get yourself an uprated fpr and and some big injectors and get that boost wound up!!

*please note its not quite as simple as it sounds,(before u go blowing things up!)

Post by: GazB on 11 June 2005, 23:10: Not according to this guy Grant, although I would be better off paying you Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£50 rather than drive to Darlington. LOL
