| Re: Remaps: Actuals vs Claimed Expect around 230/240 from a stage 1 tune. Stage 2 cars (remap, exhaust, intake) tend to make around 260bhp

| Re: Remaps: Actuals vs Claimed Easiest thing to do is to look on the JKM website at the rolling road day figures. REVO stage 1 cars from memory got something like 225bhp and 275lb/ft Lee

| Re: Remaps: Actuals vs Claimed The REVO torque is pretty close but the HP a little optimistic. You may find that the OEM DV will fail, it's been covered a few times, with pictures, if you search.

But then look of the actual remap gains on the S3 - 310+lb/ft anyone?!   And with 4wd meaning you can actually use it in the damp/wet
