Another Revo question
« on: 10 June 2005, 20:54 »
 :embarassed:

OK guys a dumb question from a new GTI owner  :wink:

Thinking of having a Revo remap done  :tongue:

But don't want to do much more, What else Is the minimum I need to do

ie Forge Dump valve, CAI, Exhaust etc  :undecided:

I don't want to bugger up the motor but what's the minimum I can get away with after an Revo  remap   :huh:

As far as I have gathered, you only need a forge dump valve, cos the VW wont last long with the extra power. You are better off getting a 4 bar fuel regulator aswell, you get an extra 15bhp for £50.
If you get the CAI, and the cat replacement exhaust, you can get an extra 10-15% more power. My revo dealer said if I get the stage 1, then get the exhaust and cai later, he'll upgrade for free

increased fuel pressure means you can generally run higher boost thus meaning more ponies,,

fuel pressure is regulated by the fpr and what it does is ensure u maintain a constant pressure... by increasing the pressure the fuel flow into the cylinders will be greater and more of a mist improving the combustion... when running more fuel u can increase airflow and in turbo turms u can increase the boost pressure being fed into the cylinder aswell... so go get yourself an uprated fpr and and some big injectors and get that boost wound up!!

*please note its not quite as simple as it sounds,(before u go blowing things up!)
