    REVO SPS question?

    Thanks again Carl, is this just something im going to have to live with??? As i say its not a major problem, but when i start fine tuning my settings, say increasing boost by 1 unit, its hard to know 100% whether it has actually uploaded the settings, but if i could verify it with the laptop...

    REVO SPS question?

    Thanks for clearing that up Carl, i shall have a look on the stereo connector and disconnect the K-line pin if required, Ross-tech list the problem on their website and thats what they say to do. I cant imagine the K-line is broken as all other components work correctly and using Vag-com i can...

    REVO SPS question?

    Yep, is it the old problem of shorting the k-line out or something like that due to having an aftermarket stereo? I think ive seen something or Ross-Techs website about fixing the issue, what would you recommend? Does the Select plus have a built in safety feature to prevent damage to it in...

    REVO SPS question?

    Hi Guys, Right what im wondering is can an SPS3 (i think, the type which allows tweaking of boost and timing plus immobiliser), be used on both 8P and 8L cars? Using the unit on an 8P works fine, although cant acuire the current settings in the ECU, but appears to send new settings to the...

    Revo select plus

    Thanks for the info guys, much appreciated! Yeah thats the select plus i have, with the A,B,C settings. I might make some tweaks, but at least now i have some confirmed settings to go back to, i always run mine on optimax but not sure that it was originally programmed for that so hopefully got...

    Which fitment wheels for 8L?

    Thanks for the info prawn. How many people have used that type of spacer tho, i dont really like the idea of a spacer, especially when the wheel bolts dont actually bolt through the spacer to the hub and hold everything together??? Which car are these wheels from, really like them! do you...

    Which fitment wheels for 8L?

    So my question is, can i fit wheels from the later cars, i.e the 8P etc? Or am i limited to the earlier stuff fitted to the 8L and early TT and golfs? I have seen many 8L with RS4 wheels, but are these all replicas? I have aftermarket 18" wheels on my A3 at the moment and would like to change...
