Title: stage 1 map wow!
Post by: davemk4 on 08 February 2013, 19:59
Now im fully aware proper live tuning is the best etc. But got alot this year to sort. Car needed tyres on front soon and going on holiday. So my plans went on hold for ths front mount and revo map. So to tie me over got a stage 1 map fitted to car. Oh lord. It quick  :grin:

I cant imagine how you guys pushing 220+ feel when you boot it. It has transformed the car!

Loved mine when I had a stage 1 the difference was unreal, went stage 2 yesterday and the increase over stage 1 is truly frightening lol

This might sound stupid but can you go straight to stage 2 if you have everything fitted that's need or do you have to go stage 1 first? Never had a map done before?

Why would you pay more for a 12year old revo map and not have as good results for paying for a custom map from R-tech.
