REVO Stage 1 GTI Remap Available

How's 1st and 2nd gear change? Heard the apr map sucks with dsg on the gear change!

No problem's with gear changes all are silky smooth.

Just got mine done this morning over at Midlands VW. Top job from Topher The improvement is huge, definitely worth it! Although Revo's gains are a bit optimistic!

My best readout was 295.5BHP & 312LBFT torque on the rolling road. That's on setting 2 with Shell V-Power.

Revo claim 320BHP & 340LBFT.

295 bhp is little bit down on revo's suggested 310-320, but I did find the map woke up after about 200miles , so maybe more power to come.

What Ron you using?

What Ron you using?

Yes, well the quoted figures are in ideal conditions with race fuel i'm guessing on the highest performance setting set on the SPS.

I'm running Shell V-Power which I believe is 98RON? hence it's on Performance Setting 2 to accommodate that. Figures are always usually slightly overexagerated. I can see how they get the quoted figures though.

It's an absolute animal in 2nd, 3rd and 4th! Pulls so hard all the way through the rev range, literally throws you back into your seat and keeps you there. It's been putting a huge grin on my face every single time! Loving it!

Maybe just a bad Dyno or not enough air getting in. Try a panel filter if you wanna stay oem look

i notice revos own dyno graph shows the stock figures about 20bhp higher than what Mr Savages car made. hmmm dyno accuracy and variations would need to have a whole new topic started

[Rhyso]

You suggesting that people FUDGE dyno numbers?? 














 

[Mr Savage]

Yep. Look at the torque at stock too 380NM over the states 350NM that's R torque levels and over 250BHP stock.

Revo's dyno is definitely generous as I fail to believe the units are pushing those figures stock

i'm sure it goes on, but in this case its more likely just overreading. might be a drivetrain loss issue, we measured less than 10% losses on 2 identical Mk7 GTIs one dsg one manual (both making the power/torque figures too). wouldn't take much percentage wise at 300 ish hp to go 20bhp either way. as someone pointed out though might be worth dynoing again after a few hundred miles to see if the ecu has found any more power with its own adjustments... im sceptical though because i've seen what happens to the intake temps after 3 dyno pulls which is not a fully accurate representation of what is going on while out on the road
