I had my ED 30 mapped by AMD 2 weeks ago however i got a couple of days left to go back and change to revo
Map. What are peoples views? Amd rollers i got 308hp and 280ftlb from
There own map. Thanks

excuse my bluntness but wtf would you change from a perfectly good map to REVO.
Just because the revo cars make the highest figures most of the time, it doesnt mean its the best way of mapping a car. Far to many people look at pure figures as a method of choosing a map. I dont look at just the output, i look at everything from figures, reliability, power delivery, longevity, tractability, wear and tear and most importsntly after sales, and for that reason, revo is not on my list of maps
What you have there is a very good map, with very good power/torque curves. In your position i would stay exactly where you are as that map is very good
-
If you are looking to go stage 2+ in the future, it would be a viable option. If you are just going to stay stage 1, not much point really

^^^dont listen to Dom, he's got some severe obsession with trying every map on the market because he loves spending money :P :P :P :grin:

I've thrown the towel in as a remap tester :wink: Got no money left anymore :ashamed:
I've got a shark stage 1 and PDtuning stage 2, thats enough for me now. Will post up dyno results of shark stage 1 remap within the next few weeks as I havent seen any of their stage 1 graphs anywhere :happy2:
Anyway I advised to stick with what he has :stupid:

If REVO always make the highest power.. why is mine pulling almost 20bhp less than KTLSTAR? :confused:

I find it helps to read the post :P

In fairness the RR days I've done, AMD maps have been comparable to the revo anyway

I disagree. Most REVO stage ones i have seen are all sub 295bhp

Not on AMDs rollers.

Not on AMDs rollers.
I guess then your comment is more dyno related than map related? I wouldn't go within spitting distance of AMD... but that just a personal gripe.
-
Lots of people seem to slate AMD's rollers but on Stage 1 you get before and after runs so I don't see the issue... mine made 240 before with an intake and 310 after the remap so to me it doesn't seem that they're that inaccurate considering a standard Ed30 should have 230bhp? :ashamed:
-
Had me worried that people say amds rollers are very optimistic as last time I called in had a run at 330hp stage 2+ with all the hardware reqd :confused:
Although my mates bam mkII got what was expected so maybe I had a boost hose o ring gone again.

Go revo but wait till the new software comes out :happy2:

Think the race file is very aggressive and requires WMI :happy2:

No it doesnt.....it's not a race file too, stage 1,and stage 2, and stage 2+ are new, being developed on my car as we speak! :party:
-
When will those be available? :happy2:
-
What's the difference on these new maps??

I stand corrected. Why the re development?
-
They still have my car as we speak so I'm honestly not sure but I'll find out when there going to be available
From what Paul was telling me they register a fault on idle to do with fuel...I don't ask to much as I'm not technical :signLOL: there making general improvements on the maps too to make them better, I wont say the figures were hoping for on stage 2+ as I'll sound silly of it fails to make it!
Once I've got my car ball there may be updates for the next 5 months to improve it even further....
Sorry I can't tell you anymore buy I'll find out all I can later on when I speak to paul about the THS cooler :drinking:

If thats the overfilling issue.. then I must already have the updated map :happy2:

Thats the fault that I had at stage 2+, there were half a dozen people who had their cars mapped at inters also had this fault at stage2 from what I remember

What's the overfilling issue?

+1 :popcornsoda:

+1 :popcornsoda:
EML comes on and logs a "System rich on idle, occurrence 1. " fault.

I had it keep reappearing without a full tank of petrol :stupid:
or did you mean overfilling something else other than the petrol tank?

Over fuelling, as in running too rich... not filling the tank up! :signLOL:
