Revo Technik releases Stage1 performance software for the VW MKVI Golf GTi. With no need for any hardware modifications Stage1 raises peak power from a stock 200bhp to 282bhp and peak torque from 207 lbft to 317 lbft.

I think not.

Have dyno will be happy to prove fantasy figures are exacty that - fantasy

I'm not sure where he is getting those figures from as Revo don't claim those.  They claim "+35-45 bhp gain +80-90 lbft torque gain"

As i thought... you may well be running better fuel over there. However you will still not get 282bhp. I would have guessed more like 270.

I have had mine on rollers and it made 265bhp... i think i have the graph somewhere :undecided:

May I ask who's / what type of rollers they were.

I'm going to write a very long list of things to check when you guys are getting your vehicles power measured on rollers  :wink:

Then I'll make it sticky  :grin:

I hear you, but they are not actually writing the software and they can't have any influence over the car running sweet or otherwise as they are installing a pre-set pre-made product.

The important things to note on the dyno are where the air temp probe is and all of the information on the bottom of the dyno plot  :wink:

See below:

First up on the rollers was a Mk5 Gti with a 'Stage 2' Revo map, estimated power was 280-290bhp. Result:

They do actually write their own software also... Although with mine it was the revo of course. If I had known previously that they wrote their own software, then I probably would have used theirs instead of revo tbh.

this is a graph i have of mine when it wasnt well...

I don't doubt it for one min, but I'm just picking up on what you said about not tuning for big figures and the car running sweet etc as we're talking about REVO's here.....

Any chance of you scanning printout that so I can read the small print  :wink:
