No offence but that is not a smooth looking torque curve  :undecided:

How does it feel on the road? Can you feel that dip at 3500rpm??

That torque curve doesn't seem right at all. It shouldn't drop that quick and it shouldn't really drop below 150Ft Lbs

Also, did it wheel spin at 3500 rpm or something?

It should look something like this. (The pink and grey line) Taking into the account for NM to Ft-Lbs



Did the tuner not mention anything about the huge drop off in torque?

Not really up on my figures and graphs sorry :( guy said there was quite a drop off but that may be bacause of the very restrictive downpipe, think stage 2 holds the boost all the way to the red?

Any info/knowledge welcome tho :)

Well in your graph you see the torque drop off at a really crazy speed and drops to a very low amount.

Looking at the graph i posted, Revo stage 1 should drop at a slower rate. In the graph you see it drop to about 280 N*m which is approx 205 Ft-Lbs. Your actually drop below 100 ft-lbs.

TBH i have never seen it drop off like that. The OEM downpipe is a bit restrictive (best to knock out the Pre-cat - give you approx 5bhp extra as well) but no way would it cause such a drop.

Stage 1 needs, nor requires any other mods (ie downpipe) so you should be getting close to my above graph.

Either that guys machine is incorrect or you have a problem with your car. But seems very strange as you made correct Bhp at the correct rev range....

I think it might be the fueling, a guy at work had a golf r revo map and got the switch to apr and now it's running a lot smoother, maybe the same thing? I'm happy with it for now until I get more money for more power!

Dont think that will be it mate, many on here including myself have REVO, and it pulls like a train

@ RocketRoss - you are looking at the BHP axis not torque  :wink:

Torque looks ok but its the rate at which it drops off along with the peaks and troughs in the mid range

Does it feel smooth or jerky on the road??
