REVO and sport Cats : remap needed ?

[DuncS3]

Great examples, but there is a caveat to this. My car runs on Optimax and Millers always but I cannot really run more than timing 5 without getting timing retardation via the knock sensors.

So the thoery is great but the reality is not quite the same.

Each car is different

Clog means ?

Hi Eric, a clog is a wooden shoe that the Dutch wear. [img]images/graemlins/nodder.gif[/img]

Clear as mud ?? [img]images/graemlins/dung.gif[/img]

p.s. it's one of those weird 'English' sayings ... [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

Back to the original Cats post, Mitch told me that they'd need to change code on the car if I changed to new down pipe/cats because of differing back pressures amongst other things. Give them a shout [img]images/graemlins/1syellow1.gif[/img]

It's quite important to remap after changing to free-flow cats. I don't fully understand the whole process but without the remap the engine will run a bit leaner and the tutbos will get hotter. Additional fuelling solves both, and that is primarily what the remap will do.

For reasons I won't go into, I had the full Miltek system with my stage 1 remap for a week or 2 before going back for the custom remap. So I can assure everyone that a remap is DEFINITELY needed and makes a MAJOR difference.

Having been in exactly the same situation as Dippy describes in his final sentence above, I entirely concur. [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

Hi Tim,

By any chance, would you know which version of the Revo for RS4 you're now running ?

Eric I could tell you, but then Mitch would have to kill you [img]images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img]

Only joking matey... Not quite sure really. Just know from the bum dyno that it goes well, and after a week of driving a Grand Espace the bum dyno will need recalibrating when I get home.

Must say at Bruntingthorpe recently we were all a little disappointed with Vmax achieved, but there was a crippling head wind. 3mph slower than a Diablo aint so bad [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]
