Cheers Carl!
How much is it to go from Revo Stage 1 to ST2+?
Would you recommend fitting the S3 intercooler (and twintercooler) I have before having it setup or doesn't it make a difference?
I currently have the autotech HPFP, Forge Twintake and full de-cat Milltek already on.

Yeah will defo get it done soon - my local tuner is AMD Woking but they don't have a rolling road.
Would you advise getting it RR'd or can you just upgrade to ST2+ and test it with logging?

Live logging on the road is much better, proper airflow and 'real world' conditions  :happy2:

an 07 vehicle won't have an issue, typically it was 08 onwards :)

wrong, there are loads of 2007 cars that are affected and whilst revo might not be the only mapper with the issue, it appears to be the only mainstream mapper with this fault. I have tallied up all know cars with the fault, and those without and the numbers are interesting indeed. I have also scowered the web from europe to the us to Australia and have yet to find one giac or apr car with this flat spot.

Beware the illusive flat spot!

do a search, you might not get it, but then there is a chance that you do. All we know for certain is that revo dont know why it does it, and that its fooking annoying  :laugh:

Wrong! it's not a revo issue..... It's a mechanical issue, in most cases it is weak valve springs..... that's why there is a TSB out on K04 engines of a certain build date!
my car is 2008+ and has a bad flat spot with stage 2 and stage 2+ (i was told to go and spend more money on a pump and stage 2+ map to make the problem go away but its got worse)]

logged and tested tonnes of revo settings but the car still pulls to 5.2k and stops for a second then carrys on again

Thanks James - I'm guessing you don't have this elusive flat spot! What sort of power gains did you get at ST2+?

Thanks mate - if going ST1 to ST2+ costs £100 + VAT and the same to go ST2 then ST2+ (£50+VAT each stage) then I may just do it one stage at a time so I can see the difference....
Not sure if AMD will charge for the setting up on top of the Revo charge.......
