JBS still have APR products on their website.  :smiley:

Thats probably because James's head has exploded in disbelief and frustration and not had time to update the website  :smiley:

At the end of the day, awesome are out to make money, google a vw part, and awesome pops up. Whether apr maps are better than revo has yet to be decided. Guess they are getting in quick on the vwr parts while they can before it's too late. Maybe yet another amnesty is on the cards, I'm sure apr would welcome the publicity :popcornsoda:

Again another subject brought up.
In short, no.
If you where an APR customer before as Keith (APR) says, you have already bought the map and can have it reflashed at maybe a small labour charge FOC.

Saying that, Mark did say he would not leave a customer unhappy.  I read that as even if you wasnt an APR customer before, and have been remapped by REVO at Awesome, they would listen to your concerns and act accordingly to them concerns.  :smiley:

35-40% seems to the general rule although for all the ITG fans out there I hope not!

Did you notice who started the topic?

Have you looked at the statement on the Awesome Web Page?

It's a commercial environment mate, these things are never mentioned until properly formalised and announced.

Hey everyone

I will be on here tomorrow to answer some questions in a very honest way, but i have only just got to see this thread and its time to for me to get home to the family.

I will just add one thing, we made this decision on what we can offer our customers for the future, for those concerned with figures of APR Maps, this was one of the issues why we left APR previously and this has been addressed and will continue to be addressed by Keith and the whole of the APR team both here and back home in Auburn.

we are not here to piss you guys off by changing companies but we are here to offer you the tuning solutions for the future and this decision was based with where we felt we need to be in the UK market with upgrade packages available to all of you.

If anybody is local and wants to pop in to discuss their concerns or wants to rant at me because they are unhappy with our decision please pop in and see me anytime here at Awesome.

I decided to wait til morning in the end 

I spoke to Mark in detail today. He and awesome have dealt with 4 of my cars and i honestly believe from what hes said he and jim have our best interests in mind. He'll quite openly admit that Revo was superior 12months ago and along with the internal issues with APR it was for the best at that time. By the sounds of things the fall out between the companies wasnt a particularly friendly one so for mark and jim to go and lay the cards on the table with APR n bury the hatchet they must believe that the product has evolved.
As Mark n Jim will probably tell you themselves the revo software is an excellent product n will not fault the proffesionalism of the company. So again with that in mind it must prove something?
I dint think its down to money as someones previously mentioned because if that was the case wouldnt awesome rather keep the apparent 'superior' software n keep all its customers and potential customers with Revo? If its better more people would be it surely?
Its not like its a 'put up or shut up' situation either. Hes said hes happy to consider each n every customers problem with the move whether it be face to face or on the phone and act accordingly.
I for one will be taking Marks word as gospel as he and the staff down there have been flawless over the years.

Anyways.... Thats my pennies worth. My apologies for going on.
