Its a possibility.
However Revo says fuel should be set at 9 on standard internals. The lower the number the more fuel.
Timing is very low, mine is set at 6 at the moment for Vpower 99ron (revo Stage2. The lower the number is for people who can get good fuel i.e USA.
Stage 1 Revo recommend settings is B6 T5 F9 so how on earth stage2 is set at 2.
Go back there and data log the fueling. :happy2:

Just edited that for accuracy, to avoid confusion.
CF - Correction Factor. They amount the the ECU has to retard timing, to avoid knocking.
From REVO documentation.

Cheers for the replies lads. I've passed it onto Will so just waiting to here back now on what he thinks. Passed on a link to this thread aswell

while its been dry and cold ive taken the golf for a good old drive and put it through its paces and that dip is definately not noticeable on the road!! this thing pulls like a train!
timing may be low but thats where no knock was detected, the timing did get put at 4 and made more torque and no extra power and started to introduce the slighest bit of knock at the top end. to introduce knock, however minute it is is pointless if i gain no power and torque!
this is not something that i or will wanted so the timing was pulled back! this is not a track car and is a daily that i wanted safe for many years to come, ive had cars on the limilt of tuning before and its not what i wanted from the golf!
i understand revo suggest certain settings for different states of tune but my wants and the characteristics of my engine are different to others and the car is where i want it to be so in honesty im not fussed :booty:
as for the curve and dip in power, this isnt the first graph ive seen like that and looking at my standard power it has the same dip as after revo! if i felt this on the road it would be a different matter but there is not hesitation or power loss!
i trust Will (who afterall is the Revo tuner) all smiles from me :happy2:
just took delivery of these aswell, waiting on the warm weather now
ktlstar:
:happy2: Aslong as you cant feel the dip and your happy thats all that matters.
Good kit there, i have the same. I advice to take out the blue adjuster platforms as the car sits perfect without it. i.e no rubbing
