S3s are running 320bhp with Shark software, but I think they quote 300-310bhp as they don't want the front wheels spinning all the time being FWD  :grin:

Its fantastic software.

S3 has a different intercooler than the ED30.

I would be amazed if stage 1 made 320bhp.... I'm sure others will agree with me.

Ah right. So it will be 300-310bhp then ignore my first post, but the S3 stage 1 is 320bhp deffo.

Heres my current Shark stage 3 Ko4 remap vs stock map. running  apr fuel pump, milltek TBE forge twintake.
I think even the stage 1 S3's will struggle to make 320bhp, unless theyre running on a dastek dyno. My superchips stage 1 with forge twintake made 318bhp on a dastek dyno, stage 3 superchips made 314bhp on a Dynodynamics RR :signLOL:

stage 1 was 286bhp, stage 2 at a guess in the region of 295-300bhp on JKM's DD rollers... but never ran the car yet with a stage 2 map actually loaded..  :ashamed:

Just to confirm this guys, bluefin and superchips don't offer live RR mapping it's just plug and play whereas Revo offer RR tuning and can point out any faults with the car etc... Also Revo offer higher gains at the expense of more aggressive driving responses from the engine? I'm looking for a stage 1 on my KO3 GTI. Plans were to uprate the DV, new OEM plugs and K&N panel filter too. Just want a bit more poke but still as close to OEM as poss. Are all these bits necessary and should they be fitted before the map I assume to help give maximum gains!?

Also Revo quote £499 for the stage 1 on their site, does the £100 off offer still apply anywhere?  :smiley:

JKM motorsport in portsmouth have a good deal on. Revo stage 1 plus new dv and panel filter for £550+ vat.  Im booking mine in next week. They also throw in a miltek cat back non res pipe for a few quid extra.  :laugh:
