Had my ED30 Stage 2 but......

JigBake:
I took my 57/ED30 to Revo, Daventry on a Focus RS open day to promote their new software. My reason for this was because they were offering 10% discount. I must admit that their service was appauling. They said they couldnt map my car because it had to many faults and low fuel pressure. I sh*t myself there and then because I have only had the car a couple of months and it has only done 22k. I asked them what should I do? and they answered we dont know, its probally fuel pump. They then told me to go to AMD Essex (where I live...100miles away) and get them to sort it out. I was furious! So I drove 100miles back home and they luckily could fit me in.

When I got to AMD they diagnosed it and said we should start with the cheapest thing first. The problem ended up being the fuel filter which was a relief! They mapped the car and honoured the 10% discount. It made 250bhp before map (TBE and filter) and 320bhp after. I was really happy with the service from AMD and Revo's software. So I finally got there in the end.

When I thought it was all good, after about a week of driving about my clutch has now started to slip. I was gutted. After doing some research I have now realised that this is quite common. I have only experienced the full power a couple of times. I was shocked that it went at 22k. After I get an uprated clutch fitted after christmas im now hoping that I can enjoy the car! Fingers crossed.....

ktlstar:
Shocking service however glad you got it sorted. Good to hear review of AMD aswell. I used them for my stage 1 and will be going back for my stage2.   Do you have an uprated hpfp ?

JigBake:
I do not have an uprated hpfp, but will when I go 2+ next year.

PDT:
Just out of interest, what was shocking about their service? 

Golfster S:
Your clutch shouldnt have started slipping only a week after going stage 2 !
I ran my Ed30 for 20K mles over 2 years on stage 2 before it started to slip, sounds like yours was already shot before your remap.
