Re: Let's clear up a few things.....
"Honestly....leave this motor alone. It is damn near perfect."
Honestly............If you leave this motor alone the guy that doesn't will smoke you. Leaving you with the feeling I got to do something with this motor. RS4 will never be impossible to drive under "normal" driving conditions.... unless you suck at driving.
Be a MAN Mod it!!!!! Girly man dont mod it and just buy RS4 cocktail glasses,RS4 golf umbrella, RS4 polo shirt.

Re: Let's clear up a few things.....
With all due respect, if all the REVO will do is improve "feel" then I find it hard to believe that a car that is flashed will "smoke" a car that is not flashed. The difference between "feel" can easily be made up with driving ability. I've embarrased some far more powerful vehicles on the road by making the right dowshift at the right time, for example...
Significant improvements must be proven to make it worth while...

as soon as george or i get the plots u can see something worthwhile.
ovbiously this is not a turbo car so gains are always gunna be modest. but it imrpoves alot more than just feel and with the downpipes makes the car feel complete its almost hard to explain and by no means is the car "harder" to drive

So, unless tuned on the dyno, forget about it??? Robin or George would you like to chime in.
did my tuning on the street w/ an authorized dealer in my area with dismal results. Set the timing for 93 octane, which I run either 93 or 100 VP racing fuel. I'd be willing to try it again if you can promise some torque gains...

considering u have the downpipes it is well worth it to dyno tune...
the three settings(timing fuel and...something else i forget at the moment) are based on a scale of 0-9 i believe and just having it set 1 too low or 1 too high will change performance dramatically and EVERY car is different weather factors are different so dynos r very important(in my opinion)... not for overall numbers but more to make sure ur getting the most out of the flash.
