I have same issue, alot of places state 300-310 for stage 1 on the ED30... JKM have stated 280ish, which is what cars with stage1 have seen on their rollers... I'm just saving up... ;)

JKM all the way, good honest reliable advice  :happy2:

Disconnect the battery for 30mins or so. reconnect, reset revo with select plus (it wipes settings)(maybe other remaps too?). It should then feel better.

im scheduled to do it this weekend. i sit in so much traffic car gets lazy!  :booty:

8L s3 is a k04. K03s was fitted to the mk1 Octavia vrs, golf gti aniversary and a few others.
I stand corrected. Too many turbos! aha

they said they can remap it to 260/268 bhp for around the £500 mark

The shoot down was posted because the reply says that the 60bhp gain can be done for £500

JKM will be doing my car soon, and they were upfront and honest and said i will gain
30 ish bhp for just over £500 with a stage 1 revo

Blue Fin gives you 41 bhp though, so why not get that one ?

Because the blue fin isn't as aggressive on torque as the revo

To Pagey1255 and apollo13, looks like I may have got some crossed wires there so my upmost apologies. Good start that then!  :embarrassed:

Not a spokesperson but having used the product it does what it says on the tin, and very well.
The tune has been set at reasonable expectations for the engine and longevity of all the other components on whatever stage you want to go to, add to this the ability to update, change and turn off a map from your driveway makes it a fairly good option. Stage 1 @ 241 and 2 @ 260ish is pretty good. I can't comment on the other upgrades as not tried them but from the forums they all sound like it's horses for... and all that.

As we know you can go higher but I crunch the miles so I'm airing on the side of caution, when it doesn't commute it will get the full treatment.

that is what i gained from my revo remap on my golf gti, 30 ish bhp and the car feels so much better for it, and as mentioned in a previouse post, sort the dv out mine was shot and only made 140 bhp on the before run due to this,
