REVO Stage 1 GTI Remap Available

[cheets7]

So how's you guys liking the Revo map now you have had it done for a while? 

[Mr Savage]

Worth every penny. Still loving it. The car's power is out of this world for a Stage 1 GTI and it has the added piece of mind that it isn't taxing the clutch as much as the torque centric APR map would be.

Well stage 1 should be easily on par with an R if not quicker from what i have seen! Thanks for the update.

The car has gone from being a good car to a great car, can not recommend it enough , there wouldn't be many cars on the road under 50 grand that would keep up with it,& the added bonus is fuel consumption has greatly improved.

I have now missed the offer Revo were doing!! Need to see if a local Revo can offer me the discount 20%.

I now its old news...but...what are you guys who have been remapped doing on the "TD1" flag situation...?
Are you getting flashed back before any dealer visits..?...Or just not bothered..??

I really want to get remapped but I dont have a Revo or APR dealer that close to me so flashing back will be a right pain in the back side.

Thanks
Ken

For me I think I'll probably tell them, so they don't flash the ecu on a service , even if you get revo to put the car back to stock vw will still know it's been done because every time you remapp the car there is a counter on the etu that can't be changed.

Thanks for your reply.....the flash counter can easily be reset....I know APR do so during the flashing process.

The problem comes with the "checksum" number the actual file produces on the ECU......this will change once the map has been changed and can never be the same again. Even an official VW ECU update will change this checksum...but then the VW database will be updated to reflect this.

Its well documented Audi use the "TD1" flag which basically happens when the dealer plug in your car and connect to the dealer system.....Should the checksums not match your chassis number gets tagged "TD1" and voids your engine warranty.

Saying all this ive not actually heard of anyone having a TD1 flag attached to their VW in the UK.....

Im very interested to hear from people with remaps who have been back to dealers and been plugged in...
