From experience, it used to be APR is awesome, then APR were dropped by Awesome GTI and they pulled out of UK market, all of a sudden APR was hated and overnight 70% of folks became Revo fanboys,

Nope just my opinion based on what i see on forums, 5 years back it was all APR then they pulled out and it was all Revo from that point on. Look on MK4 forums from 5-6 years back and its all APR, now on this forum its all Revo :P
DanGB:
Revo were quite new back then thats why.
APR never pulle out of the market. It was still avalaible from several dealers.
Its just that Revo has had good figures with 2.0T and the word of mouth effect.

Whats different with 3.0 that makes it so much better, and how come it was not done like this in the first place, years ago?
Thanks.

Its a different calibration philosophy for a different market.
We've listened to what the majority of enthusiasts in the UK seem to want and v3.1 provides that.
When its officially released, we will offer the ability to switch between our previous version and v3.1.
There is a very long technical explanation but its kind of a trade secret and definitely too much to type.
For example, we offer two software versions for 2.0 TSI engines as well. One that works perfectly with the OEM clutch and won't deteriorate the life of it and one that makes as much torque and power as what other tuners offer in the UK market, its called LP3. Once LP3 is officially released as well, you'll be able to switch between the clutch safe version and LP3.
Options are what we've been told the UK market wants and I'm here to accommodate that. :drinking:
Still have your Stage III?

@ Keith:
Have you changed the map so it keeps the Lambda values above 0,80, so the cars won't run out of fuel at app. 5200rpm even with your own upgraded HPFP and the ECU starts reducing boost until it's within 20% of requested value?
I had that proble and you made me a testfile with that specification :smiley:
