Confused (with me that's not hard)

robzer · 18-02-2006, 08:54

Currently running on a dragon didital box and am happy with the performance

drawback is every time i book in for a service, work (Hade to get my fan blower repaired yesterday) and even when i considered trading in for the new octy a couple of weeks ago, i have to remove it, easy enough but a pain in the a**e.

Have seen REVO SPS1, 2 and 3 on ebay but cant work out whether trhey are suitable for the PD 130.

Love the idea of not having to go under the bonnet to remove.

Any comments/ advice appreciated

Cheers

Yes REVO, as well as AMD and Custom Code will be suitable and all are switchable.

Can vouch for the AMD one ...works very well ...even better with a green or K&N air filter

Any comments on difference in performance, dont know what bhp my wee fab is running at at present but believe the revo gives 170

**VRStu** · 18-02-2006, 09:11

I think 170 is average for the switchable generic maps.

My Dragon did 175.5 on my car the AMD is slightly up on that and it delivers the power much more smoothly and for more of the rev range....and it's faster now than when for some reason it did 0 to 60 in about 7.5 secs

(it's know got used to the K&N filter)

robzer · 18-02-2006, 09:20

the $64000 question, sell dragon and buy revo?

**VRStu** · 18-02-2006, 09:22

oh well - now you are talking!!

Octygone · 18-02-2006, 09:32

Any one near you that has a revo-ed car ? so you can feel the difference.....any offers anyone?

**VRStu** · 18-02-2006, 09:35

I don't think there are that many REVO cars on here. Over at SCN there will be someone as they are all REVO mad.

Milkyjohn · 18-02-2006, 09:49

revo works for me,very smooth part throttle and tootling around and very fast on full throttle,i could not imagine a better map although i havnt tried any other,also been on skoda computers and not detected.

I wouldn't bother personally. When you come to sell the car, you can sell the Dragon for practically what you paid for it. The Revo you will see nothing when you sell it.

Plus, I doubt you'll get double the performance from a remap compared to the Dragon
