What remap have you got on the car at the minute?

Cant see it maing that much difference if its already mapped, will change the way it drives and judging from the trial remap I had it will be a smooth introduction of the power.

You are probably getting used to it, im like that 'i'm sure this car is getting slower' lol

its a chipped uk map that is on at the mo.The first map i had on was 155bhp at the wheels--but then it had to have another map on when the stealers did a update on my ecu with out my permission..
Haven't had chance to have my car back on the rollers

Its really down to you if you want to part with your hard earned. I really like the introduction of power from the APR map and im going to try REVO before I take the plunge.

If its going to make a reasonable difference then go for it otherwise spend your money elsewhere.
