Stu,
At no piont have we rubbished APR. All we have posted is Facts.
And no, you won't see us comparing, Celtic tuning, Superchips etc as we have never dealt with them.
We are just showing the differences between the 2 companies we have used.
If you don't want to see it, then don't read it!

Perhaps rubbish is too stronger word in this case but it seems to me the Awesome and REVO have gone all out to make a big impact in the market.

and the various Facebook comments and postings in the REVO group of the same plots which were obviously carried out on the Dyno at Awesome seem to me to be taking cheap shots at APR with an undertone of bitterness thrown in for good measure. What's done is done, Awesome are no longer APR dealers and are now REVO dealers enough said.
Ok, this might not be the case in your eyes but as a potential customer that's how it looks to me. Awesome have always appeared to be a professional outfit and I don't think public 'tit for tat' or 'this is better than that' is representative of the professionalism that I thought Awesome thrived on.
Don't get me wrong, I have spent a serious amount of money on Software from REVO over many years and I like the product, in fact I would go so far as to say it is the best 2.0 TFSi product on the market, for my needs. If someone came to me today and said I want some new software for my GTi then my answer would likely be REVO although the recent price reduction by APR does now warrant some consideration if you don't want the flexibility REVO offers. FWIW I have carried a REVO banner add on one of my websites for well over a year, Free of Charge, so my argument here is not against REVO or indeed APR.
I think the point that Arin makes is valid, people shouldn't get hung up on the numbers and not everyone wants to push their car to the extreme limit and in that instance APR would appear to offer a suitable and proven product - one which until recently Awesome would have argued was the best on the market. This is probably borne out by your previous customers who all claim to be satisfied with their software.
I won't get drawn into the Dyno vs Facts arguments and would reserve judgement on the exact increase until I saw it independently tested. Suffice to say I have previously been involved with REVO over some period of time in trying to ascertain true figures vs advertised figures and it's always going to be a contentious issue.
