OK, I am looking to get my motor remapped. I had started calling the REVO companies in the reasonable area and realised that a few other guys might want to get theirs remapped at the same time. So let me know and I will see if I can't get a better price.

Other alternatives to REVO are worth discussion as well what work is recommended before we get them done.

I have replaced most of my turbo pipes, the PCV system and all the vacuum pipes that deal with the Diverter valve.
Exhaust will be done with the remap and I will fit a forge TIP.

Haha, you two need to get a room..... Laughing

I am going to be in between a stage 1 and 2 when it comes to getting it mapped. It all depends on where I stop....
I know a lot of people happy with a Revo map but I also know that I am going to get more from a custom job.
The plan was to get the exhaust done at the same time and then a good map. Before then I plan to fit the TIP and toying with an enlarged side intercooler.

Driving both makes sense, my car is now sorted so we can plug in the VAG com and record 0-60 times and real boost levels. bounce
