    REVO v BLUEFIN

    What is the difference between the two, from what I can see Revo gives better gains than bluefin and thats about it. A chap on here recently posted his 1/4 mile time at Santa Pod in his Bluefinned 2.0TFSI Quattro, would the same car with Revo beat this time due to higher BHP/Torque ?
