Superchips already list the MK6 on their website but from what i've heard over at sciroccocentral, Revo should be a better option.

Extra wear on parts and the possibility of a voided warranty if your engine died (although unlikely not impossible)

i don't see how they can quote power figures for a map not developed yet?

They will be guesstimates mate, at the end of the day a RR isnt accurate so they can quote what they want. Going by the fact the new R wont be using the mk6 engine (ed30 is the rumors?) i doubt its more tunable than the mk5 so probably more like 250bhp, similar to the current engine.

Who knows though, might well do 270bhp for all we know?

I like the look of Superchips' BlueFin thingy, but is it for real? I mean, can you just plug the thing into the car and basically dial in how much power you want?

I don't know, it seems a bit too good to be true?

TIA :)

agreed. although if they are just in the final stages of testing then they might be confident of a minimum increase.

wow you guys are quick!!! :grin:
