upgrade to REVO stage 3 - Octavia 2 RS TFSI
« on: April 10, 2010, 10:35:09 pm »
Last week I got the Autotech upgrade kit for the HPFP, installed it four days ago and then upgraded to Revo stage 3
I used to have MTM last stage that they have with K04, but since their next upgrade to 380HP is with K16 (way too expensive) I switched to Revo.

I attach some dynos with several settings from Revo and what I used to have from MTM.

Note: in February I had 340HP (2degrees outside), now because there were abt 20 degrees outside it dropped to 328HP. The shop does not have a climate control room for the dyno, they just put a big blower in front of the car (pretty much similar to normal driving conditions).

some comments abt the dyno run:

blue software MTM: 327 Bhp & 431 Nm
pink Revo Stage 3 (959 settings): 361 Bhp & 456 Nm
red Stage 3 (969 settings): 369 Bhp & 470 Nm
green Revo Stage 3 (979 settings): 371 Bhp & 478 Nm

right now I am running the red one -969

Clearly I need a twintercooler and in this moment I am waiting for an answer from JKM for availability . I hope to order it next week.
When the twintercooler arrives I will also install the USP fluidampr.

Next on my list are the S3 camshafts

By the way is it safe to use the stock rods or should I change them too? (it is an extra cost that I would rather avoid if it is not necessary)

its all dependant on the dyno mate. dont forget the guys at the surrey rolling road with bluefin stage 3 were comparable with the revo stage 2+ cars and all getting similar figures to yours.

Good solid info but what car is this on? GTI? Ed30? Cupra? Octavia?

Would be helpful for readers to know straightaway - I just spotted it in tiny print on the graph image.

Did revo have any bother converting from mtm to your stage3? Just wondered if mtm had put any nasties in to keep you with them or was it just a case of remapping over mtm? Was on the phone to qst today and he said not to upgrade to the hpfp unless running bt and then i said i was also ordering the ko4 itg and he said not to bother as vw had got their intake system so spot on??? Dont know what planet they were on today!

^^^^
Kim at QST has a good reputation as a tuner although, IMO, he's somewhat humourless and a good friend of mine had to go as far as threatening him with court if he didn't put his MTM map right - No driveability.

very good results there but running the timing 6 or 7 and fueling at 9 on a fuel pump and standard intercooler sounds a bit much? im running 756 with standard intercooler and autotech pump and its very strong.  :happy2:

sorry for the hijack but i thought you had sold your car chris and bought a hairdressers car?!  :P

I've lost the plot mate. I've split up with my girlfriend and i'm selling my house so will be mortgage free soon ! Hence wanting to spend 27k on a car  :stupid:

But ive put a lot of money into mine and feel I would be daft selling so soon .. Getting revo 2+ on monday hopefully that will keep me interested untill the house is sold, and be right for the ring next month   :driver: :happy2:
