As am getting Revo on Fri just wanted an idea which were the best settings for you? I have a manual box and i know that no tweo cars ae the same so what suited your car may not suit mine.
I have read that F should prob be 9 as will only have a stock fuel pump but waht about B & T?
Cheers in advance
-
the dealer will set it up for you but it will more than likely be T5 or 4 and F9 boost can be any where, mine was initially 7 then i upped it to 9 for a kick but was advised not to keep it on 9 as it could stress the turbo. mines on 666 now but i have a few more mods :smiley:
-
cheers, so if i dont want to stress the turbo/clutch maybe a B6 and T5? will be running it on tesco momentum as no shell by me and the bp ultimate stuff is more expensive but not as good as "every little helps" :grin:

B7 T4 F9
definitely F9 for std pump cars
T could go up , but you need to be running 98+RON fuel otherwise youll get timing pullback.
needs to be logged on safe settings then dialled up with more logging for optimal :happy2:

thanks john, i saw the other thread after i had posted this. So if running momentum or v power do you think timing could go to 5 or better to play safe on 4 and see how it performs?

You are paying for REVO so they will go out in the car and datalog it, then set it up accordingly. If they have one, then they may set it up on the dyno.

I have two settings:
B7 T5 F9 - more power
B6 T6 F9 - smoother

got mine done today but left it with 6/5/5 till i get used to it then planned to up the boost to 7 and f too but pipewerx said it did not need to be F9 and F5 would do the job? seems to run ok so far...

fuel 5 is extremely rich. Not heard of anyone else needing such a setting with stage 1 alone.

Also not much real benefit without an upgraded hpfp. :confused:
-
pipewerx said that these were the default settings from revo? Excuse my ignorance but a rich fuel mixture will mean what exactly? worse mpg? not enough fuel getting through pump into chamber to make good power?
-
Maybe for a 1.8T but not for a TFSI :stupid:
On a bog standard car something in the region of B6-T4-F9 maybe but as people say Revo is entirely adjustable so you go with what the experts recommend.

just looked on the sps switch pdf doc and the default settings appear to be 6/5(for 98+RON) and 9 unless you "understand AFR" will see how it runs but i need to take it into awesome anyway for a run on the dyno so see if they recommend changing F setting

Its very odd for a car to be datalogged and left on F5 unless you need such a rich mixture. Without an uprated HPFP then F9 is far more likely to be correct.
Did they give you any copies of the datalogs?
-
Are you sure they said five and not nine? Could be easily misheard/misinterpreted.

no did not give me any copies. i queried about putting it on 9 and they said that was for race octane fuel? :confused:
PDT - what will be the problems of running it at 5 - simply dont need that much fuel on a stg1?
cheers
