I don't see an issue with them charging for a dyno run to set stage 2+.



For instance a tuner selling revo stage 2+ charge £50+ vat.  You have to consider they share that profit with revo so don't get the full share of money.

Also these tuners have invested in dynos costing well over £60000 so you can't blame them for trying to claw some money back on it imo

Of course it can be done without a dyno :stupid:
As long as the car is datalogged, and the settings are tweaked to check timing pull etc.
If I were you I would rather pay the extra and get it setup on a dyno, at least that way you know you are getting the most out of the map.
When I got the shark stage 3, after datalogging, and about 3 file revisions  from them, it looked good by the figures from datalogging, but when I got it put on the rolling road it only made 317bhp and 280lbs of torque. By driving down to them, and spending a full day there where they kept taking my car out every half an hour thrashiing the living daylights out of it, coming back into the workshop with the engine fans running, then turning the engine straight off etc etc (my brakes were goosed on the way homwe and it cost me nearly a £1000 to get  them put right again) did I finally acheive 330bhp and 350 lb/ft of torque.
Would this have been solved by getting it setup properly on a rolling road from the first time the file was loaded onto the car???
I know what I would have chosen :popcornsoda:

Guys - Installed my TBE and popped down to get my stage 2 software. I didnt have my cam follower with me so no HPFP installed... However i am very happy with it so far.

The BTF values i think was B9 T6 F7

Goo dluck with those settings - IMHO boost and timing are running too high. Do you have the SPS switch? If not then these settings may be fine during this cold weather. I would be be expecting to see boost 8 and timing running a max of 5 to be honest.

Dom - I thought this, however i have no vag com to log things nor do i know what settings to use. I dont have SPS switch either.
What about Fueling setting ? I see people use setting 9 on standard Pump
Is the settings dangerous for the engine then ?

Thanks

I wonder what those numbers would be on a reliable dyno...   :xmassmiley:

I would not like to comment on anything without doing some logging - setting the fuelling at 7 is safer as it is moving to a richer fuel mix, but without logging it is impossible to say whether it is optimal. Where are you based?
