Anyone had a Revo stage 1 remap?

As above any experiences?

Note - looking for feedback, not “take it to MCR”

Don’t know about MCR but I’d say take it to MRC! No honestly take it there and if you live far it’s well worth the trip

Why on earth would you want to pay a shitty franchise name with dealers everywhere taking in mass amounts of money for an off the shelf map which is emailed to them and then put onto your ecu?

Your car was tuned by someone sitting at a desk tuning your ecu with teamviewer or sent over via email and then flashed. The right way would have been to have it done live on a dyno which tailors the map to your car.

I would rather give my money to a tuner who is passionate about tuning the right way with great knowledge rather than the likes of revo who have a passion for profits.

Iv heard countless horror stories about revo and others killing off cars.

You will never get the knowledge that Doug and Minhea have anywhere else mate which is why everyone is suggesting MRC.

I had real stage 1 on my Ibiza Cupra back in the day and whilst it got off to a slow start and the car took a while to adapt the end result was awesome with a big slab of low town torque being there style. I’ll probably end up using MRC myself as they seem to be the ones to go to with RS’s but that’s not to say the Revo map won’t be great - I’d certainly trust them more than the generic map sharers using Kess V2 tools etc

Either way - the Revo map feels awesome.

Interesting, you ask for experiences with Revo, maybe nobody has experience with Revo remaps on the RS4? They tell you to go to MRC, somewhere they do have experience with and you ignore the advice and go somewhere that's got a 2wd rolling road and have a generic remap? I'm not dissing Gotboost, i'm sure they are perfectly good at what they do, but i can guarantee your Revo remap is nowhere near as awesome, as an MRC remap!
