APR's response to Revo SPS3

Post by Nige_RS4 » Thu Jan 08, 2004 10:23 am

Just seen this on AW - the graphics look a bit gimmicky, but if the s/w works who cares.

So if it is compared to an SPS3, then here are my comments:

1. It looks aweful.
2. The boost slider is two thirds of the way along and is at 99.61%..
3. What's "Lambda Regulation" got to do with anything?
4. "Idle Torque Offset"... WTF?
5. The functionality seems to be below what the SPS3 does.
6. I assume it runs on a laptop. Handy if you carry a laptop everywhere!! Looks simple enough to go on a Windows Mobile device and connect via Bluetooth or IR.

Sorry, but it just says "Tuning is like playing a video game". This game tweaking will have very real consequences.

Phil, I thought it was obvious - it allows you to offset the torque when you're feeling a bit lazy ! I mean don't you know anything about modern cars ? [img]images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img]

I thought getting the wrong air/fuel ratio was properly dangerous? Being able to adjust that is asking for trouble surely? [img]images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

Sounds very similar to this
Revo software
is this the Advanced tunning kit?
