I had an S3 with a backbox and Revo, my friend has an S3 with a full turboback system and custom code. We both agreed the Revo was better, thats on an S3 tho' not sure if CC map is any better for the RS6.

Don't like the Revo.

I've had several remaps (albeit on several cars) and here are my findings:



Revo (Standard Audi S3) = Too harsh a spike. You get a kick in the back and then it stops pulling.

AMD (modded Audi S3) = Nice, smooth and progressive increase in power and torque

APR (Standard Leon Cupra R) = Nice, smooth and progressive increase in power and torque

Jabbasport (Standard Leon Cupra R) = As above but quicker and custom to your driving preferences

Jabbasport (Modded Ibiza Cupra) = As above but quicker and custom to the mods that are on this car

Superchips Bluefin (Standard but at a later date, modded Focus RS) = Waste of money. Plug and play; couldn't tell a difference

Custom Code (Standard Audi RS6) = Smooth power delivery. Car quicker but retains driveability of RS6. Recommended




So, most remaps I have tried I have been pleasantly impressed with, but the Revo and Superchips ones were not worth the money.

For your interest, grizz on here does Custom Code and he isn't too far from you!

Hope this helps
