Revo Software

[Dazzeroo]

Inorder to remap my S3 8P with Revo software, do I need to visit a Revo dealer or can you buy hardware with the software installed so i can do it myself?

Just wondering as I live in Aberdeen and the nearest dealer is over 60 miles away!

Has to be a dealer visit, unless you can get an agent to come to you or meet halfway.
iirc REVO have £100 off at the minute.

Good luck
Paul

Thanks Paul, bit of a pain that. My last car was an ST and loved the fact the Dreamscience product.

Would anyone recommend Bluefin over Revo?

 

[PaulAr]

The feedback on Bluefin seems to be indifferent and people have been pretty underwhelmed by the gains on the S3.
I had planned to go for Bluefin but after a bit of research decided against and went back to REVO for those reasons.
Staz has Bluefin but iirc and was only happy with his after some custom mapping.

Superchips do a 7 return on the Bluefin product so you can always send it back if you are not happy.

There is a 50-100 mile post map period where your ECU will adapt and the gains will seem to increase slightly, however from my experience there should be a significant difference imediately after the software has been installed so make sure you can feel that `before and after` difference.

My advice would be to have a run out to you nearest REVO guy and hand your money over. I did a 100mile round trip to have mine done and its a minor inconvenience for the end product, remeber too that the trip back will be a lot more fun and a lot quicker!

Good luck
Paul

Good point actually! Perhaps i should schedule a wee visit to Dundee after all!

Thanks!

Would recommend Stewart @ Performance VAG - he came to me in Glasgow and the service was first class. Drop him an email and mention me.

Never heard of these guys, might have gone Revo if I knew at the time but Im happy with GIAC right now. A bit inconvenient having to wait till holidays to go to Stattler in Sheffield or drive all the way to kirckaldy for a new map though :-\

Thanks Elton, I've just sent him an email. I'll let you know how i get on

Had mine Revo'd yesterday at Awesome GTI and I'm well impresssed!

Car goes much better, well worth the cash.

And I took advantage of the £100 christmas offer, so it was a bargain!
