Revo 4 Me (Possibly)

Featured Replies

Having looked at

Jabba

AMD

REVO, I have decided to go with Revo for my Remap, but am hoping that someone here may be able to assist incase I have made any errors in judgement.

Based on adding the Cupra intake and a green panel filter.

No Zaust as I need to keep the car standard so I dont invalidate the warranty. I also need to take the map off for servicing

Jabba

Custom remap I believe, but you cant set it back to standard without going back to them. (DOH)

AMD 1 Click

Generic remap I believe, You can turn the map off, but they reccomended me not adding the intake and Filter. (DOH).

I assume this is because the map is generic and the car will run lean with the map they set.

Has anyone had a different experiences with them, and had an intake and filter.

REVO

Generic remap I believe, I can use an SPS to take the map off whilst the car is at the garage.

I have mailed them, but am not sure what they will say about the filter and Intake. They may put me in the same category with AMD and at that stage the filter and intake may be a waste of time.

Has anyone had any experience with any of these scenarios?

Cheers

any of the remaps if found may kill your warrenty. If it's that important to you I'd chat to your dealer before hand on the QT

Thats why it would be important to set it back to standard, hence amd or revo

Unless they notice your Cupra intake and green panel filter ;)

You can get a custom map with AMD on the 1-click as well, just costs more than the standard map you get with 1-click.

Ive got revo.. and the above mods..

they are worth maybe 1-2bhp... but a big reduction in soot whe hoofing it :D

ive also yet to see a Jabba car with same+zorst make more power than a revo one.

bear in mind that your average dealer monkey wont notice the air intake, and the air filter doesnt get changed until 40k anyway!

You can add a boost controller to effectively "turn off" the Jabba map in the same way the one-click or the SPS do for AMD and Revo.

I agree. My dealer's attitude is that if I replace a Skoda part (e.g. exhaust) with another (e.g. Milltek), the warranty on the Skoda part has gone. But then so has the part itself! Provided the substitute part hasn't hastened the demise of anything else, he's happy to honour the warranty on what's left.

And if the remap is worth anything at all, anyone driving the car will know it has been done and recent dealer diagnostics systems seem to be able to pick up some sorts of supposedly clandestine remaps.

Yes but with an SPS1 or One-Click the car would be in stock mode. Also diagnostic systems aren't usually connected unless they are looking for a fault.

I have the AMD 1 Click & intake and filter.

Not had it RR but picks up better & less soot with the intake & filter, not had any problems at all.

Yep, all good thoughts. The green filter would be changed for the std one, before sending to dealer. (would ask the dealer for all the old parts) That way I can reuse the filter. The cup induction kit looks virtually identical to the std one, or it can be taken off in 10 minutes.

That's what i hope mine says, but you know what they are like. The Sales guy said no when i asked him about it. No mods at all, he says.

The main thing is the engine going faulty and then "oh no sir you had a remap pay for the engine yourself"

DOH

With SPS and a custom 1 click that sounds like a plan :D

Hi Lee,

No two cars run the same from day one, if optimised tuning is how you would like your car to be set up? then there is no other way of carrying out this work. After market induction systems usually cause premature failure of the air mass signal unit. Rolling road testing also ensures all is as it should be as far as BHP and torque delivery is concerned.

I hope this is of further help to you.

AFAIK the ECU software has a checksum which is calculated during programming. Changes to this by a tuner will result in a different checksum although some companies do claim to be able to defeat it.

So that would technically rule out all 3 of your choices as far as warranty issues went.

revo are also developing stage 2 software at the moment,so far i think just for the petrol models,but i would imagine deisels will follow.which would help with any furhter mods you are considering
