revo or r tech map

[George]

I can't decide between Revo or R-Tech. I had my mind set on P Torque but heard some bad stories about their maps.

[R-tech-Nick]

Revo you have the adjustability with the SPS switch and can also be custom setup on the rolling road to an extent, very strong fun remaps, and very cheap to upgrade to stage2 or stage 2+ ect.. We can provide the revo remap with free rr session.

R-Tech map will be tuned unique to your car on the day to your mods and to how you want, ie smooth linear, kick ass torque, best of both worlds and if your fussy about how you want the power curves then you can also have hands on input on the mapping the, This can take upto 3 hours of dyno time.

With both remaps we will provide the same level of service and care, the usual full health check. smoke test and data logging ect..

Hi Nick,

I spoke to Revo and they said they load the map, and then take the car out on the road, log and adjust to suit. Do you log on the road as well as on the Dyno?

It would really help me, and others if you could somehow get an image up of a Revo Stage 1 map curve, and then show your curve options laid over the top. So I/we can see where the difference is etc

Nick doesn't map a car for the most power he can get out of it,its more bout drive ability of the car

....George, every single car is different, even when two cars have the same mods.

...Robin, it's only to give us an idea. There isn't so much difference to make it indistinguishable, for example every P Torque graph is almost identical.

Let's see what Nick says!

nick is a revo dealer also,  so you can try both and see what your happy with.   Nick would be the better option 

[R-tech-Nick]

I will pull some r-tech rr graphs off the PC and try to post them up.  But with all my map i start with my low power base map and tune the car on to the dyno to how you want the car or to how I think best compliemts the cars setup.

I have been emailing r-tech about getting the custom map done on my car.

Depending on what my insurance renewal is like, might get it done before inters

....Depending on the usual insurance premium factors such as your postal district, age, history, etc, if you have various mods (or plan to have) it's worth enquiring with an insurer such as Greenlight who specialise in modded cars and don't hit you based on bhp. [I have no vested interest in saying this - I am just a satisfied Greenlight customer in my third year with them].

Thanks Robin. Im already with Sky who are friendly towards getting a re-map . but im also getting a TBE soon so dont want a big jump in my insurance premium.

Hi, i will say that i did approach Greenlight for my potential mods, along with increased bhp, and to be honest they pretty much ignored my suggested mods of air intake and Milltek exhaust, but, and i quote, 'we base our premium on the increase in power'! That said, my premium (with them) for all the aforementioned, with a Stage 1 remap was about £680.00, more than double my current 'stock' premium, ouuuchhhhhh!!!!

....I expect that other factors such as where you live and age may have been a factor.

[gigolo456]

Of that Robin i have no doubt, but those are also considerations that every other insurance company takes into account! Just proves how extra power can often be the deciding factor, they somehow assume that it turns mere mortals into Schumacher wannabees!!

....[RR with Greenlight fanboy hat on] But that's where Greenlight differ - They are a bunch of enthusiasts who know about modded cars (they only insure performance cars) and specialise. However, they are 'fussy' about what/who they insure and so they should be. Anyway, when Tony @ Greenlight reads this he will probably post something.
