If anyone has a DSG I would 100% recommend REVO, I tried Bluefin a couple of years back on their 7 day trial, and it was terrible really slow gear changes, I then tried the REVO and well never looked back (only to see cars disappearing in the distance!). The REVO is also very consistent the torque is spot on just keeps going rather than an all and then nothing 'fizzle'.

I could never ever drive again without it - It completely changed my driving experience for the better. buy it now if you have a DSG and spend the savings on more fuel!  :driver:

when i asked them, they said they dont really have an opinion on it. obviously some vw dealers put revo on themselves, which means HQ cant mind, and they expect it...

plus the likley hood of it going wrong.. is what..  basiclly nowt....

i may try book myself in this sat..

Spoke to my mate at VW who said "technically, it'll invalidate your warranty - but our machine won't be able to detect a remap anyway".  Hmmmmm.

Also spoke to Kate at JKM who was very helpful.  Just need to quickly make up my mind now.

Not an issue either mate, as your Revo dealer should just re-apply your map back on to your car free of charge.. Happy days!  :happy2:
