Do I REALLY need to get my ED30 Revo'd?

ED30_jase:
Hey I had my ED30 only 3 weeks before I did a Stage 1 and DSG remap...the reason for me was purely because I had the money at the time and if a didn't do it would probably have spent it elsewhere!!  But can't recomend it enough!!

Doesn't spoile the car one bit!!    :happy2:

Have had dubs for 12 years and always liked modding them. My Corrado VR6 is still sat in the garage now as I have spent far too much on the old girl to let her go. Only had the ED30 a week but bought it as I was adamant that I didnt want to go down the modding route again and I knew I would with a standard GTi.

Now the car does feel amazing, very well balanced and certainly feels everyone of its 230 horses and maybe then some. Problem is my mate has a std GTi with Revo 2 pushing out around 280 bhp and same torque and that feels spot on power wise. Especially above 100 where my starts to feel a little flat....

What I dont want to do is make my car too powerful and end up having to spend loads on bigger brakes, WALK kit, Quaiffe dif etc etc

So I guess after all of that I just wanted a few peoples opinions who have done Stage 1 only and have been happy with results. Handling, wheel spin, std brakes etc etc Most people on here seem to have gone the whole hog Stage 2+  :laugh:

I used to be into Evo's in a big way and you could fine tune the power by the amount of boost you ran (obviously) is this possible with Revo or is it literally a flash of the ECU with preset map.

Apologies if this has all been discussed before.

Thanks

Matt

Agree about getting remapped, but Revo isn't the only one to consider personally.

In a word... No!  :signLOL:

You can still have loads of fun on the stock map. Just keep pushing it harder into corners until you find the limit of either your gonads of grip. I have wail of a time in mine  :driver:

Have you thought about the free trial?  Probably tempting fate if you do  :signLOL:

gazcupra:
They don't do the free trial anymore
