Post by: Evan@APR on 12 June 2012, 12:05: What model year is your car? APR offers free trial software available for many 1.8T and 2.0T FSI vehicles and it lasts for 6 drive hours. If you're not far from Star, they would be able to plug into your OBDII, confirm availability and load software if you wish to do so.

Post by: Quackers on 05 July 2012, 11:30: Got here a little late (page 33 :shocked:) but -

Is all this on standard AGU internals? And trying not to sound like a noddy, just read in another thread that once you're car has Revo software it then can't be mapped by a third party?! My car has 'Stage 1' Revo software (to tide me over until I can afford such luxuries as a Relentless manifold etc). Would be cheesed off if I thought I was going to have to faff around putting a standard ECU back before I can have you guys map it.

Post by: Evan@APR on 05 July 2012, 12:23: FWIW ours can write over all other aftermarket software.
