Indeed... is that what you believe CR? Look at your build consistency... or lack of.. Stop blaming every failure on oil contamination which is total BS and lies..... No other bearing system on the SAME FILTERED OIL SUPPLY on the engines suffers apart from your turbos.. How odd. Care to explain? Look at the internals you use, the parts you use, and those you dont use, and those you randomly use... Inconsistent output is what you produce. Some work fine, some dont.. Thats the reason I ceased to use you some years ago. Fed up of inconsistent quality of product which went on to fail. You have made good ones... Figure out how you did it and repeat it... It will be better for you all round.

Dont be sucked into the DD rollers are the only accurate rollers PR BS... They only measure atw and add a factor to get to an at the fly figure... so not the full picture, and variances will occur from drivetrain variances, wheels, tyres, gear used etc etc etc Stock cars make stock power here, when they're healthy... Mines not a happy dyno and many will testify too..

as said, i would use it if i had some map pack/damos info to use... winols any day over ecm

pop down here and I will do a free run to compare.

if you actually try for yourself with the available ecm driver, you too will find it underwhelming

there's a perf setting 3 in the revo2.. turbo is max'd out on p2 from logs nothing left in it lottery applies to dynos... and I know mine reads lower torque than a lot.. but it does real coastdowns, not calc from whp like DD do.. inertia dynos seem to be the ones which read on the happier side of life generally

happy to receive a map pack/damos for me17 if you're offering that would be ace ols is also a map editing programme, just a much better one............ ONLY if you have the damos/map packs to use of course any of these editors are only as good as the data they present.... as you know

low? seriously? What power should it have been as std? car has 3" turbo back and induction kit mods.. thats all. Its std power was 208.6bhp/205lbft Its Revo2 power was 266.7bhp/295.5lbft Power gain 58.1bhp Torque gain 90.5lbft and thats not a good gain? My dyno does not read happy... (read> its not an optomistic dyno, its a tell it how it is dyno... however unpalletable that is) I was impressed at the gains... nearly 60bhp and 90lbft.

we're talking me17 here not med9 the ECM me17 map driver list is pitifull, and I suspect like most other things ecm, incorrect too! me7 for example are pitifully inaccurate, and I have been telling alientech the correct maps, and locations on may occasions which they have rolled into the newer drivers.. (so everyone else benefits, but at my significant time cost to do so) Med9 on ecm is tolerable for a stage 1/2 level but thats it imho me7.. I dont use it.. its riddled with driver errors. I use winols and do what I want how I want with accurate bosch derived data, not reverse engineered poke and hope map spotting like seems prevelant on ecm on so many drivers. yea, lots of folks use it, and I dread to think what maps get "sold" from these incorrect drivers. the names are misleading and hopeless when comparing to bosch function diagram. Winols all the way.. Just need to find more damos type info and map packs to build up for me17 I would have hoped ecm had a map pack at least the equal of most of their med9, but what was available was minimal and I suspect incorrect also.. missing significant required maps to get the job done. Very dissapointing.

okies.. BTT Revo2 Performance Mode 2 (Me17 thing)

You have said... work done by me has caused issues to your car. Factually Incorrect. I have clearly said what I did to "MY CAR" when I sadly owned the peace of ****... replaced turbo & replaced gbox for a non-broken one, then sold it, to SOMEONE ELSE........ Not you.. lest others reading this cold think otherwise. That was the extent of what I did with it. *Maybe* whoever sold it to you sold you a right "Story" to go with it, and mentioned Badger5 in some context of it "bigging up" the car for sale... I can assure you I was well rid of the thing, and the guy who bought it off me was told everything bad about it I knew... and it was a long list. He still bought it amazingly. If this is what you have believed and have based you -ve thoughts on, I'm afraid you have been seriously led astray. I hope you can cease the derogatory stuff now.

back in 2006/7 it did yes.. old picture does'nt say that now.. and is significantly higher spec car.. i just liked the flame out of exhaust picture..

pm replied... take notice I suggest, read and understand.. you seem to believe I did work on this car which caused its issues.. Simply not the case.. I too made a huge mystake buying the bloody thing with its on paper awesome spec, to then find what an actual pos it was. The only things I did to this car was replace the uber laggy gt30 something turbo which did'nt spool until 5krpm with 7200rpm limiter, replace the snapped 2 of 4 turbo to manifold bolts to facilitate replacing the turbo, I replaced the gearbox which crunched in 3rd when I 1st had it but which went on to break, getting stuck in 3rd gear.. box still sits in a corner, broken as it came out. So to recap, I replaced the gbox for another used one, and the turbo down to a 2871 so it would spool sooner... and then got rid of it. Whatever you believe else was wrong about it, is nothing at all to do with me nor anything I did with the stupid car.. poor quality build from day one, and for that you need look elsewhere to blame.. Not me..

and who the feck are you with your misinformed opinion.. you guys are laughable haters without any substance for why.... pray tell.. I would luv to know what your own experience has been.. given I hardly ever work with skodas.... please tell I am all fecking ears

None what so ever Clive.. the only octy I have ever owned (not built!) is eddyh jbs built pos thing.. and yea that was a pos in every respect... inc engine I changed its laggy as feck turbo to a smaller one as I could not live with no boost before 5krpm and a rev limiter at 7200rpm.. pointless power band and actual 312bhp vs the claimed 460bhp it was sold with. worst car I have EVER had the misrey of owning.. I got rid, I did not build anything on it.. engine was rattly, high CF and very high oil consumption from the day I stupidly bought it To get some FACTs out there. Regardless of what shyte you have heard.
