Evo, I will be picking up a GTD pretty soon and will be getting it remapped. Am unsure who offers the best overall deal.
I havent read a review of a mapped GTD so am interested to know what you thought of it.
Did you consider anyone else but Revo, what did it cost you? cheers, Jon

what's the difference between the cars 50mph-70mph?  Or 30mph-70mph?  Isn't this the 'real world' performance?

my boss chickened out of any testing cos he didnt want to get slaughtered. I will get one of the sales guys one day to do some 30-70's etc. Got it done by badger5 in stroud really knowledgable chap. Revo seemed to give the best overall with cost and amount of potential bhp increase also dealer is close to me if something goes wrong. Yeah £399+ vat I bought a sps switch so can put it back to standard for any warranty work as work for VW ; )

Hi Evo...

As you work for VW, can you tell me about the `standard` map that Revo supply for switching back to, please?

Would a dealers be able to see that its not the original standard map, and also, I heard about an A3 being Revo`d and even though it had been switched to the standard (from revo), when it went on diagnostics at Audi, it screwwed the brain...the story is kinda 3rd hand tho, so not convinced that its true/accurate, I`m not dissing revo but I cant decide on them or Bluefin for when I get my car.

Your comparing a modified car to a standard ? Race a revo'd GTI then and It'll put your diesel back in its place.
