Revo program for 2.0t

My Classifieds: 0. Revo Chip B7 A4 2. Register or Log In now! Hi, just had a rather important question. I have a stage one Revo ECU upgrade and my clutch recently started slipping, probably due to the extra torque of the upgrade. To be honest, if this upgrade just reduces the life of the engine substantially, I'll just get rid of it. If anyone, whom has put lots of miles on their car with this kit, could give me some input on what i should do, it would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I want this car to last awhile and dont need it to wear out at 60, miles. You should have done more research before chipping, if that is your most significant worry about getting chipped you clearly were not ready for it.

My concern happened when my clutch went bad, i figured that they would have designed the chip to not ruin stock components. Is there really much of a difference between APR and Revo chips? As well, how often does everyone perform oil changes?

I've taken my car to the tracks to drag race and to autocross on several occasions and I'm still on my OEM clutch at 50k miles.

I usually change the oil at k miles or every 6 months whichever comes first and use Mobil1 0W40 during the summer and Mobil1 5W30 during winter. But that's me! Stokes - Site Moderator, Audizine B8. It's either the way you operate the clutch or a defective clutch. I personally know a guy who rides his clutch alot and had his clutch die on him within 10k. Original owner and not chipped. Reason: Cleaning-up. APR stage 1 will deff not effect your clutch tho.

Also if he bought the car used prev owner could have worn it down by ridding the clutch or if hes trying to do launches with the car that would cause it to slip not saying you are doing that or anythning Stage 1 will not "decrease" the life of your engine. As long as you do oil changes and keep up with other maintence you will be fine, Also using proper fuel will help. You can find your closest dealer by clicking here.

Helena St. We have also had access to a number of other GPF-equipped vehicles globally on this platform to test the software, too. Ensuring we launch the best version possible that works globally, with all different fuel types and climates. Who has been responsible for developing this software along with the rest of the calibration team. Here are the key points.

We anticipate it being as illegal to remove as DPF. Therefore removal of the GPF is not a process supported by Revo. If Governments are coming down hard on manufacturers. It has taken almost 40 revisions to get the software to a point where we are happy to launch it. One of the very first versions of the software allowed us to make NM of torque without pushing anything too hard.

Actually, no. There are also legal and environmental responsibilities for us to support as a global tuning company. We have spent a lot of time developing the software on partial throttle tuning, which is where the car will spend most of its time in real-world daily driving. The first thought for anyone tuning a car is often to put a decat pipe in place, or in the new era of GPF, delete it altogether. There are two types of GPF found in these vehicles based on drivetrain layout.

Effectively it means that we would have to work the turbo harder and run slightly more boost with GPF-equipped cars to make exactly the same numbers as we make with our Stage 1 ECU Performance software for the previous generation non-GPF EA platform.

Drivability and performance throughout the rev range where it really matters — those are the keys to having a fast, capable car that you can easily live with and enjoy every day. The last thing you want is for your car to be unreliable, or to be on the raggedy edge all the time.

Ensuring reliability takes time and thorough testing. Just like with a diesel DPF there is a regeneration cycle, so we were interested to see how that responded and behaved once tuned, too. The filter captures soot particles as the exhaust gasses pass through — the soot is then burnt and the filter regenerated when the exhaust temperature is high.

In most cases, the filter is operated under a constant trap and regenerate cycle in a passive manner. Whereas a DPF traps soot and then needs a special engine mode to regenerate. We purchased a Leon Cupra earlier this year as a dedicated development vehicle for this project.

Our development process sees thousands and thousands of miles of hard road and track testing with various revisions and software files until we get it exactly where we want. We then put it onto our in-house hub dyno to verify and log what we need. A car on the dyno will perform differently to a car on the road.

Temperature, humidity, altitude and pressure are just a few examples. This is used to check and double-check all of our development road miles that have been done first. It allows us to load up the engine through the whole rev range to see generally how the car behaves under load.
