*** All your Revo question's and answer's in here please. ***
vRStu:
As I've tried to explain, F9 is probably the most common setting for TFSi however if when the software is installed or in fact when you log the car yourself you can see that you have a decent fuel pressure and that the other factors such as good air flow and good fuel as well as the CF allow then the fuel setting can be altered. It's certainly not set in stone.
This is a good read - http://www.revotechnik.com/products/pdf/SelectPlus_AdvancedUserGuide_V0707.pdf
As another example, when Keith setup my car it was on B7 - T5 - F8.

Sorry if we me is being ffick, Stu - Ta for the info :happy2: - It eventually gets interesting at page 7, if I can make sense of it, but it gets a bit too technical for my interest - I just want to know which settings work best on my car, F8 or F9, that simple. I think Chris wants to know the same.
Max Q:
I emailed Revo to get the skinny on this a few months ago and the answer I got is that you should be running F9. I won't post the whole email here, but this is what Carl from Revo HQ told me;
'The fuel setting wants to be 9 to get the most out of the vehicle due to the fuel pump being a massive limitation on your vehicle.'
To WhiteGTI,
If you are going to change your Revo settings away from the recommended settings to try and squeeze a bit more out of the car, just make sure you do a VAG-COM data log after each change so you can see exactly what the effect of the change is. If you are not doing this, I would suggest not tinkering with the settings and just leave the Revo recommended settings in place, (B6T5F9). This is very important, as you won't be able to tell the effect of the change from the 'seat of your pants', or the engine noise. From my experience the most sensitive parameter is the timing (CF), and it can be affected by changing the boost/fuel without specifically changing your timing setting. Also I would suggest that running at timing 6 is probably a little high unless you are running a very high octane fuel with additives, but again the only way to find out if your ECU is pulling timing (CF value in VAG-COM) is to do a data log run in the car. I found that I was getting more than optimum timing pull, which kills your peak power developed with T6. I've experimented extensively using a lot of different combinations of settings and checking the results in a data log and I've found the safest and best compromise settings are the recommended settings B6T5F9. Just my t'pence worth..

Good value t'pence worth!
B6-T5-F9 as recommended by Revo is what I'm currently running. I'm curious what Keith @ JKM has to say.
:happy2:
This is the end of the thread below is the start of a new one.
SteveS:
I saw on seats forum, that AMDessex are offering free RR with the REVO offer, (before and after).
sounds like a great deal.
I have emailed them for more info, but would anyone else be interested?
