RS6 REVO first impressions...

Had the Revo code installed yesterday, and also got an SPS3.

Although I am still taking it pretty easy with the car (up to 600 miles now however so am giving it a bit more stick), the difference is very noticeable.

The car pulls much stronger on anything more than approx. 1/4 throttle, up to which it is almost the same as stock, which is good as it enables "normal" driving.

As soon as I have had the oil changed I will do side-by-side runs with my AP-22 (not so much as to get definitive figures, but comparitive ones running the stock program alongside the upgraded one).

I spoke to Revo and they said to expect a minimum of 50bhp and 120lb/ft, and up to 70bhp and 140lb/ft increase (they achieved this on a car they had for testing), on the "standard" settings for the upgraded code.
Of course dependant on fuel etc. with the SPS3 this can then be played with but I can't see me doing this other than for very special occasions.

Certainly on first impressions I would say it's well worth it [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]
