Just got my new car, Audi 1.8T Sport, it's running 150bhp exactly the same as a standard 1.8T Golf.

Just wondered if anyone could tell me if the Revo stage one approx 210bhp is worth the ?586?

Car is fun at the mo but seems like a good deal getting approx 60bhp extra for under ?600!

Not that well up on chip tuning so any help appreciated! [^]

Take it to AMD mate! get a proper rolling road remap

Stay away from uploaded programs is my opinion

Revo 4bar with SPS3 gets my vote, If I had to go for a custom (yeah right) map then Id go to Jabbasport - at least you'll get an inflated RR printout!!

 

[glen1.8t]

did we not have a poll on re-maps etc which revo won hands down, revo wins for me every time![]

 

[GaryM]

All a poll will show is what everybody has and not necessarily the best product but if you are DBW on an AUM/AUQ then Revo 4bar SPS3 is definatly the way to go.

REVO mate.

There will be a REVO dealer local to you.

All the others require you to drive somewhere... but what happens if something goes wrong... Might require a tow to that place!!

 

[Josh_PoloGTi]

Oh, and like Gary said... Only really worth it if it's DBW. Older engines without Drive by Wire throttle would be better off with an Upsolute and spend the rest on other bits and bobs.

 

[N11K DJ]

I think i must have a non-DBW as my car is a 1998/S..

Have been reading up on Upsolute, seems everybody is happy!

Does the guy come to me? Also, ?305 sounds like a bargain!

Congrats on the new car Nick!! Any pics??

 

[N11K DJ]

Hi Steve, cheers mate!

Will put a few pics up, cleaned it yest but has been raining since [B)]

Try and get some on tonight, nothing special really, totally standard silver A3, drives very well though!

Yes he will come to you and for ?305 it is a bargain.

Its either that or a K03s upgrade and a trip to Jabbasport.

And your Turbo wont go bang by running too much boost

Will it not??

I'd say all turbos will give up the ghost sooner or later if running too much boost.

Thats the glory of SPS3, increase the boost for playtime then downtune as and when you like.

Yep - no complaints about Upsolute [^] you cant spend ?305 better IMHO! Go give Simon Coe a call on 01246 411021 or Email him at [email protected] for more info have a look at his site www.ccctech.co.uk and yes he does come to your house and fits the chip there []

 

[N11K DJ]

It might ar it might not. I've run more boost than anyone thinks is sensible and had zero problems. Quality tuning!

There's nowt wrong with anybody elses tuning, but your car might go bang before or after you have it remapped, or you might get hit by lightning, or your legs might fall off.

Don't get so defensive liam. They've more customers than they can handle.

 

[thechief]

Has anyone with a jabba map ever compared figures to those found on another rolling road?

 

[LIAMH]

"Don't get so defensive liam. They've more customers than they can handle."

Defensive, please

just responding to a comment about bogus RR the only comparisons i've seen between Jabba and REVO are in Golf+ Mag and Jabba's Pd 130 was quicker than Revo's pd150....

For the record i don't believe one remap is particularly better than another

pays your money and takes your choice - just don't slag other companies off in the process...

I'll get the opportunity to do this at the Astra-Sport/UK-MKIVS RR shootout comming up @ Star.
