Throttle/torque intervention.  Hard to explain but you wont have it due to the age and year as its a earlier ECU.

R-tech all the way.  They are top of the game for VW tuning....without doubt.

Another happy Revo customer here :smiley:
This site is bias to R tech, even though they only do one generic map.
The Revo map has also been well developed, but can be tweaked once on your car. ie, I had mine adjusted for 95 ron unleaded, not super as that's what I wanted.
R tech remap is tuned for 98ron.

My other AUM Golf GTI has a remap Science £200 remap, which is actually quite good too. No probs so far

We're only bias to R-Tech we have very good experience from them

My mate has a stage 1 Revo map on his AGU and it does feel good, maybe a little too harsh on the boost though

I rang R tech when I was after my map, they told me they have 1 map, and that's a 98 ron map which they recommend  :wink:
I asked if they could do be a custom 95 ron map, which they couldn't.
So who do I believe? You or R tech.....MMM let me think  :grin: :grin:
Oh, and how the f**k can it be custom if most people have it?? :rolleyes:
