PDT/Sedox performance Sunderland - Revo Remap

(1/14) > >>

JStav:
I took the car to PDT/Sedox Performance in Sunderland at the weekend to get stage 1 done  :party:  I dealt mainly with Dave there but the other guys there seemed just as knowledgeable and enthusiastic  :pomppomp:  The car was checked over first to ensure all was correct and had her on the dyno.  She ran 160bhp as standard  :confused:  After closer inspection it turned out the diverter valve was split and Dave managed to get me one right there and then at a fantastic price.

The MAF was on it's way out and PDT happened to be able to get one from a dead Seat Leon parked in the front which was going to for an engine replacement.  They gave me this for absolutely nothing  :drinking:

After a few dyno runs with the software uploaded the car came back at 220 which Dave certainly wasn't happy with.  He kept trying to make adjustments and finally landed on 226 which again he still wasn't happy with.



As you can see towards the end of the curve the power falls away and a boost leak was suspected.  As it was getting on and they had other appointments Dave offered for me to bring it back and he'd take a good look and run it on the dyno again.  So I went back today and it was up on the ramp and the pipe in question was dealt with! (turbo to intercooler pipe on drivers side).  Back on the dyno and we got the improvement we were looking for.



Finished on 238bhp with it and it would obviously have been higher if my car had made 197bhp to begin with and not 191.  More than happy with the performance of the car, she pulls like a train through all the gears and it brings a smile to my face when I plant my right foot!  :jumping:  Really happy with the revo software and it was everything I hoped it would be.  The power is instantly there whenever you need it.

Just want to say a huge thanks to Dave as well as the whole of PDT/Sedox as their service has been impeccable.  I went back fully expecting to pay for Dave's time to fix the boost leak as well as the dyno run (and quite rightly so), however they refused to take any money and said they just wanted the car to be running healthy and to the performance levels it should be.  These guy's really are brilliant and it's clear they not only know their stuff, but they have passion for the work they carry out.  Can't recommend them highly enough.  If anyone is looking for someone in this area for a remap and/or wants some questions answered then these guys are the ones to to talk to!

 :congrats: you can't beat abit of Dave action. Made a couple of 300mile trips to have Dave work on the car, and won't hesitate next time something needs doing!

PDT:
Thanks lads  :star:

As said before mine only went to Dave for just a map...

21 months later I'm still on the slippery slope, so beware the visit to PDT for just a remap.
Mine's been there a few times for more modding..

Glad you had fun and no doubt enjoyed the drive home however far it was.

heavyd:
I did say you were better off making the trip to PDT :wink:

If you had gone the other Revo dealer and didnt get it dynod, you probably would never have known about the diverter valve/MAF/boost leak
Think it might have been my car on the lifter when you turned up the other day

Hopefully PDT fixed my oil leak on tuesday aswell :happy2:

Nice result all the same :drinking:
