Had the 5 hour trial with Revo and going to try the APR trial as well.

Read posts about people going to Revo and obviously there is a fanboy element to opinions but does anyone have a side by side comparison on gains, feel, etc

The Revo is almost £650-£700 with the switch and APR is about £200 cheaper  :surprised: with the cruise control fitted.

Wallet is definitely telling me APR...though if it's pony then I'll have to cough up.

Though seen other remaps, by angel tuning and a few other ones as well.....

Awsome-GTI changed remap providers from APR to REVO the other month.  Quite a few people swapped, and found REVO to be stronger.  Me personnally i think id stil take the APR map though

I read through that thread and saw people saying that but got the impression most were just happier about the support they would get with the Revo due to the change by awesome.

Definitely going to try the APR trial though...best try all the options rather than just go with the crowd.

It's a well known fact that APR makes quite a bit less power than REVO and the reason
Awesome changed to REVO was because APR where not moving forward with the mapping
and the software wasn't cutting the mustard and some people where having problems
with the 2.0T maps so Jim just gave them the boot which is a real shame because he
basically put them on the map in europe and they just left him out to dry  :stupid:

Actually read something slightly different to that. Read the official and non official comments from awesome but again it seems that they wanted a way out to sell Revo.

Revo is overpriced compared to all other options and because people only consider it they will keep the price up.

APR USA is looking after the UK from what I could tell so not dealign with the slower development in Europe....also all this business about buying the german company and using that as a base for APR europe and not Awesome......this could go on and on and has in other threads..

I just want to hear from people who have had both and there 'honest' opinions on both. Not debate the politics of one distributor.
