Default Recommended Revo Specialist in South

I've got a choice between Owen Developments of Oxford (who have not replied to my emails of a few days ago) and Vag Techniques of Henley-On-Thames (who replied within an hour of sending!)

Anyone had any experience of either of these guys? For me, one is currently out in front, but I'd welcome any experiences anyone has with the above two companies with regards Revo Remapping.

Thanks.

Thanks, I'll keep them as a backup option.
(Shame they are over 3 times the distance of the other two)

Choosing the dealer carefully is often worth the extra few miles. Some REVO dealers are definately better than others.

I have nothing but praise for JKM, I'm afradi I know nothing of the other dealers you mention.

Another shout here for JKM and their quality and honesty. I recommend you give them a call and ask them for their advice on the Revo remap for your engine and then decide who you want to trust the work to.

Hi, passing through and noticed the posts on Revo specialists, had my Octi Revo 'd by JKM just over a week ago. Can not recommend them highly enough. . Nice helpful bunch of people. Coffee's good too.

There are a few shown here from the last RR Day including a Stock Fabia vRS + REVO and AMD. See Linky.

Wow!
(You don't all work for JKM do you ??!!!!??!)

I'm doing the research now, so once both the stutter-fix and the 10K service have been done, I'll be ready for remapping.


I see REVO state 170bhp while Superchips say 167bhp?
Only 3 in it I know but ....just wondered!
