never had time to ask...the poor guy was rushed off his feet with the queue of cars  :grin:

The silver GTI had just had REVO reloaded at Checkpoint after being wiped with a necessary VW software update, so he was interested to know what it was doing now - updated map for his since it was originally loaded

Checkpoint have a REVO program for the Edition30 - £586 including VAT for the basic one
Golf Mk8 R order cancelled...awaiting company car instead
Tiguan 1.5 Elegance for the wife & dogs
Skoda 1.5 SEL cheap lease special

nope...standard with no mods  :smiley:

Very respectable result though of 249hp and 246 lb ft  :cool:...the Leon Cupra went away with 257hp and 226 lb ft...a REVO'd GTI with turbo back exhaust went away with 251hp and 316 lb ft  :shocked: 



Do you have VAG-COM???  If so, I'd be doing some live data logging of the turbo boost (overlay requested turbo boost with actual turbo boost).

I just see two areas of concern on your torque curve.

Firstly, the big dip at 4,000 rpm.  Whilst this "dip" is often apparent - due to emissions regs, yours seems worse than normal.

Secondly, the dramatic torque drop off from 4,500 rpm is definately out of spec.  The 2.0T FSI should be maintaining a flat, level torque curve all the way to 5,500 rpm, and dropping off nearer to 6,000 rpm.  It looks like a possible fault/failure with your diverter valve.
