John. Not questioning AmDs RR, just I know of such a story recently /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I don't have a clue whether Revo / APR are the same code or not as I'm not a programmer. I strongly suspect that they are not. I do know that APR US have been dyno tuning cars recently in the UK to improve their products and such software will soon be available for serial tune (S3 already there). I also like the APR product due to its smooth power delivery and other characteristics.
My point is that there have been many comments regards the REVO trial not reverting to standard, this again is something that I have no evidence for or against, but this makes me suspicious that as REVO and APR trial software is uploaded in a similar way, the potential for the APR trial software to leave the ECU non standard also exists. Its just that no one will give a clear, non ambiguous answer to these queries. Also, certain ECU derivatives have different capacities for "spare" programs, this could also affect the OEM nature post trial...
Basically, I'm being sceptical and cautious, rather than accusatory. I simply want a clear answer to a question posed, and when I get evasive ambiguos replies I become more suspicous - but it is only that, a suspicion. I am not a programmer and could not tell whether my ECU was OEM, chipped or fluent in Greek....
