Jabbalad's Candy white Edition 30 build thread
jabbalad:
Well.....
We have been going through the maps and there is defiantly no limit from the engine side (what i was getting at york where its backing off under more load)
We have been looking into it some more and it appears that the gearbox is limiting it... which would be why the requested boost drops when it is set higher on the map.
Mine is Running the first stage REVO DSG software installed by the TT shop (who have been very helpful)
On the day i said i wanted to go straight to the higher stage with future mods in mind, but REVO said to the TT shop that they wouldn't recommend it at the time because of the harsh nature of how the clutches engage (something i wasnt bothered about, but they said they would load the lower one in then when needed i could come back and they would load in stage2 for just the difference in cost)
Now we have come to upgrade there seems to be an issue with being able to purchase it....
REVO said that there isnt a need for us to upgrade as apparently there isnt any difference between the 2 apart from the launch control settings! (so now the cluches dont engage different and the clutch pressures arnt any different like they said they did before?)
so now im stuck with DSG software that isnt suited to the power/ torque and is limiting the boost!
It seems there cop out was that it wouldn't work with different software... something we know is complete crap as Jonnys old Edition 30 is working perfectly fine on Jabba Software with the higher DSG software....
Really dont understand what there problem is, we dont have any interest (or time) to do our own DSG software so we would of been happy to recommend other customers to go to them for it.... but if you arnt aloud to buy something they advertise whats the point?
Anyway.... Better option coming very soon :happy2:
Hurdy:
Sorry to hear that Luke. For me the reasoning behind REVO's answer doesn't ring true. They say that there is no difference, yet your car performs okay with a K04 and then is SLOWER with a hybrid :confused: Surely their limits aren't exceeded that far?
The stage 2 software is excellent, and I simply cannot see any reason why you shouldn't be able to upgrade to it.
There is always the GIAC option. They have updated their software to match the REVO stage 2 software.
KRL:
Hmmm that does not sound right Luke and must be very frustrating. Hope it gets sorted soon one way or another.

that sounds odd you are paying for a product you want and they cant tell you that you cant have it thats just :stupid:

Thats what were thinking... really doesn't make sense as if it was on the car it would only gain them publicity for there DSG software! even if it isnt running there engine software.... Maybe there not confident in there own software?
Its because this new turbo is obviously capable of exceeding the limits that they put into the DSG software that its pulling the engine management side back to limit whats going into the gearbox! unfortunately it pulls it back quite alot tho... so much that it hardly pulls at times in the higher gears! :confused:
Kev has been on the phone with them this afternoon, he said its just like going round and round in circles! :scared:
i will let Kev explain more if he comes on
