We usually include a dyno setup with most ReVO maps as part if the process to check not only power but to datalog boost and timing etc.... As its far safer to do this on the dyno than out on the public highway. But most dealers dont have a dyno so cant offer this.

Its up to the individual dealer to charge what they want, dont expect any dyno work for free!

Made a deal with the dealer, got the dyno runs in on the deal, done a diagnostic check and I had boost issue, put it on the rollers and car was only pushing 140 bhp,  so no mapping that day.

Previous owner had told me the dv had been changed a month before I bought it, got the car home and removed the dv, just to eliminate it, on inspection it was the  type b and had holes in the diaphragm, changed it with the updated d version and felt a lot better,

Took the car back the following day, done diagnostic check and all fine, dyno was not available that day so got the revo map set up on the road, and fair play the dealer said to give a call when It was convenient for me and I could put the car on the rollers for free to see the after results,

The car is transformed as you can imagine, considering I was driving with just 140bhp for the last 4 weeks and with in a day I have got aprox 100 bhp gain with new dv and remap,  I hope,
