Revo remap.

[BognorMotors]

None of the REVO tuning is ‘peaky’ Or ‘spikey’ In its delivery. It’s very smooth. How it drives compared to a factory 204, I’m not sure as we haven’t done on yet, but I’ll have a play in this coming week with one of mine. It’s obviously on a single turbo so power delivery won’t be the same or as spread as the BITDI.

Do revo do a "BLUEFIN" style box...i.e. a map which you can take on and off at will?

 

[BognorMotors]

They do an SPS unit, which you can turn the Map on and off. It’s £120. You cant take it off completely or re-load it but just allows you to play with the map. It also has an anti theft feature if want to immobilise the vehicle.

I’m assuming that’s via the obd port and the map is extra?

If so is it a generic map or do Revo need the van to set up first?

@BognorMotors do you know the figures for 180 Manual? And will it improve the crappy 1st gear torque?

REVO have done all the hard work on their own vehicles. We need to upload the map and then you’re off

We are mapping a 180 in the next couple of days so will let you know. But I’m told it feels much torquier low down. First gear is very short on the transporter which doesn’t help.

So I have to be physically there to get the intial remap and then the SPS can remove/reload as I please?

 

[BognorMotors]

We upload it and the sps allows you to switch the map, between stock, performance and immobilise. The settings all depend on which vehicle. The petrol models have three performance modes normally.

Yeah let me know

Ok so we ran a 150TSI with a REVO stage 1 this last week, and I confrim it goes and feels exactly the same as the 204TSi with a map, although being manual it actually feels a tad faster. Again its smooth, but just so relentless. I would recommend it to any one with a TSi - Just watch your fuel bill, as it just wants to be pushed

 

[B19DRG]

On a 150 tdi is it pudding the engine to far at 200ps ? Will it affect reliability

 

[BognorMotors]

Not had one on the rollers yet to confrim exact figures , but 200ps is well within the capabilities of this engine.

 

[RattyMcClelland]

The 150 and 204tsi are the same engine. Expect 300bhp easily. Golf R can push this engine to 500bhp on stock internals.

The Tdi is a different story.

 

[Mars2]

with OEM turbo push at max with 98 Ron gasoline it will push around 310hp and 460Nm. but for that you need High flow cat or not cat to be able to have enough advance timing without knocking. With E85 gazoline I guess at least 10hp more and 50 Nm more. Will see soon what my TSI 204 can push with E85.

Their is a few tuning company pushing around 300hp and and 430nm on stage 1 (with oem down pipe with the 2 catalytic converter's)

 

[Mars2]

But it would be nice to see a dyno proof from Revo that they can make this 300hp that they claim.
Because if you look under Revo T5 TSI ( same CJKA engine) the stage 2 version dyno make only 280 hp.

also will be nice to see dyno of REVO T6 TSI stage 2 with the new High flow down pipe from Milltek that should be released soon.

The 150 and 204tsi are the same engine. Expect 300bhp easily. Golf R can push this engine to 500bhp on stock internals.

Golf R is a different engine.

Golf 6 R is EA113 with B&w K04-61 turbo
Golf 7 R is EA888 Gen 3 with water cooled integrated exhausted manifold in head. IS20 Turbo
Golf 6 GTi is EA888 Gen1 with IHI JH5 turbo ( some call it the IHI K03)

VW T5/T6 Tsi CJKA/CJKB is EA888 GEN2 same as Gen1 ( same IHI JH5 turbo) with added variable valve lift. You also find this engine on Audi A4 and A5 B8 211hp it's called TFSI by Audi.
The intake manifold and the turbo cold side housing are different shape on T5/T6 and B8 to fit the different engine bay achitecture.

I'm assuming you are all upgrading your brakes and suspension to cope with all this power?

 

[Mars2]

Suspension yes I'm on KW V3 with Some very light OZ ulltraleggera wheel in 19 ( because unsprung weight is important) and 255/40 sport tire in summer and some Michelin alpin sport in winter also in 255/40.
I have the factory big brake option. never manage any fading even going really fast down hill in the alps road ( 100mph +). I leave their in the winter.
So I would say the big brake option from factory is well up to the task.

 

[BognorMotors]

Yes we are Bilstein B14, ARBs and brakes are good, but looking at options.

We will be getting it on the rollers soon.

 

[Mars2]

Do you get some brake fading? because you only need bigger brake when you reach the point of getting some fading other wise it like sending money in the garbage or
you like the bling bling effect of color brake caliper.
Then you can go for the vagbremtechnic S3 caliper carrier with S3 caliper on OEM 340mm disc but they have less pad surface contact than factory big brake but have the bling bling effect. Though you can fit some DS2500 pads in the S3 caliper. but then front/rear balance is f***ed, so again money in garbage.

The only option I see is front and rear Reyland AP brake to keep good brake balance

But I will only consider them if I fit a K04/EFR6758 from Turbo Zentrum to get 500HP++ and having proof that I run in to some Fading issue's. I don't like to spend money for nothing.

T6 with TZ hybrid turbo

you can see the TZ hybride turbo at 31 second.

Russian with that TZ turbo on a A5 with same EA888GEN2 as us:
Audi A5 2.0 EFR-6758 Build

French Leon EA113 engine with TZ turbo
TLS Motorsport & C2 Motorsports Toulouse

That K04/EFR hybride from Turbo Zentrum is the only K04 that have the inlet of the turbo on the right position ( same like our oem turbo) all the other KO4 are made for
GOLF,A3, Seat plateforme and have the inlet housing with 90° bend upward. so need totally new custom piping to air box.
