Remap Decision????

[Edition_30_P]

Hi Guys,

I have an Edition 30 after owning a 56 plate 1.8T Polo gti with APR Stage 1 map on.. can't decide whether to go for APR again or whether to get the Revo?? Any help in pushing me towards the better option?

Also would like to know where i can locate the smoothed Licence Plate bumpers


Thanks

theres merits for both but for me the adjustability of Revo wins it

What pros do you feel Revo has over the APR Map?? What gains do you get from the Revo? I had a trial APR map on the Edition 30 and i was blown away. Gains showed 305hp which I thought was great....

I've had both, APR on my ED30 and REVO on my S3 and would be really hard pushed to chose maybe the adjustability of REVO may sway the decision

that is good  

mine ran 301 at stage one on revo on dyno dynamics. the thing that put me off APR was needing to spend the extra on cruise contol which i didnt really want. im sure the APR is just as good but the adjustability and customer service of Revo won me over.

A lot of people I've spoken to that have Revo have said the same thing.. I work for Audi so picked up a cruise control stalk for cheap so it was a touch really!! When I had the APR on my Polo it went to VW for a lot od warranty work and was undetected every time! Think I may need to locate a Revo dealer near to South London and trial it to make my decision.

Also from all the research I been doin Revo seems to be cheaper than APR!

No on your choices but Superchips bluefin for me, had an apr on a A3 1.8T and went for SC on my ed30, they are Vw linked, have excellent cust service and stand by your warranty (not saying APR or revo don't) but like being able to revert to std easily. The SC stage 1 is awesome on the ed 30.

How much did the Superchips set you back and what kinda gain did you get from it?

Custom Code are pretty good too

Somebody pass me the gaffa tape for my mouth....quick!!!!

Seriously though, I swapped from CC to REVO and the car was faster and more powerful. The CC map was nice and smooth, just not powerful enough!
The adjustability of the REVO map does it for me too There's one specific mod to my car that I couldn't have attempted through any other map without a lot of messing about to-ing and fro-ing with the tuner.

What the man says £390 for a Bluefin Map, then a further £50 to jump to stage 2 last time i looked.

Standard is just sublime.  IMO of course.

Didn't mean it that way, but it just suits me, I was thinking about a remap a couple of weeks ago, but everytime I enquire, I ask myself what is wrong with the car, and TBH not a lot. 

Decent brakes and a Quaife make the best of what I have got.

I like it, and that is what counts.  But I wouldn't say that a well modulated and developed map will cause any more problems than standard.

Tell me about it... my car has gone into JKM with another fueling issue.  Not sure if its related to the mods on the car, but the lambda sensor, low fuel pressure sensor and high fuel pressure sensor have been replaced.  (The local VW dealer replaced the low fuel pressure sensor which didn't cure the issue).  I think its now been resolved and I am £500 lighter...
