What engine code do you have? My golf will find revo too harsh I'm told, and knowing the problems I've had it will be true. BWA engine is weaker than the ed30 engine which can take that bit more power....an dare I saw an aggressive revo map!

^^^^ I'll be getting my RTech Stage2 TIV map done on Friday. You still running stock intercooler and HPFP? Good figure that!!  :happy2:

Looking forward to your review MC  :happy2:

@OP - you won't find a bad word about R-Tech on here, nick tunes every car individually to the specific hardware you have and the condition of your engine. It's not a quick "flash and dash" like some tuners. Nick won't let you leave until your happy with it.

It's also half the price of the competitors as he is a small business so your not paying for an office full of managers .

Oii cheeky boy! Dunno why I asked as ed30 have a stonger engine full stop so can take a bit more. The same spec ed30 and mine together will see the ed30 come out with more power. Hey ho. I know that although I'm at stage 2+ (actually stage 3 by revos terms) I be lucky to hit your 2+ figure. We'll see what Mr Nick does! Saturday is collection day!

Nick has achieved  400bhp from a K04 with WMI. That was a BWA engine  :happy2:

Not known any tuner to beat it  :laugh:

Another R-Tech fanboy here,had my stage 1 put on nearly two and a half years ago,,

Like somebody already said,it's not all about the horse power,its how the power is applied...

Nick knows is stuff and you wont be disappointed,Your journey home will be a lot better than the journey up there i can assure you !! :evilgrin:

Rather turn you away then map a platform he is not fully happy with.
He did the same with my big turbo and injectors on my TDI. He was happy to recommend Darkside Developments.
Ultimately he can map all these cars but it's not in his best interests, rather focus on the 1.8ts and the 2.0 TFSIs than mess around with all sorts of hybrid or custom jobbies, or other cars he is not fully comfortable with.

He can actually map a Golf R, he just didn't realise it was a TFSI  :grin:

I think he wants to have a go on one before he advertises it  :happy2:

He put a video on Facebook last night of an S3 DSG with his ECU and DSG map. Launched really well  :notworthy:
