Revo's Tune for the B7 RS4
#2
I doubt it's anything you would be able to feel. Normal Aspirated engines, when they are chipped, the gains are usually small and if you increase ten horsepower on a 400hp car chances are your not going to feel it.

Here is the link describing the gains http://www.revotechnik.com/products/....aspx?pvID=752
This with a exhuast upgrade should be noticible, right? 420 is less than 445. The difference in hp is what Porsche usually will increase to launch a new generation 911 variant. It has to be more than slighly noticible... I gave the exhaust a 5 hp gain which is very modest based on company's claims.

Then it's not just a Revo upgrade -- it's Revo + exhaust + filter + ?
I agree, NA tuning on its own only delivers that many extra ponies. To really get the most out of an NA engine, one needs to look at a complete tuning package.
I wonder if anyone is looking at an ITB solution for the RS4

ITB's would be sweet but I don't see how they would fit! Funny you mentioned that because I never understood how such a powerfull powerplant for the RS4 develops 420hp with such a restricted intake. The inlet is like 5 inches wide by like 1-1.5 inches tall with two 90 degree bends along the way with a (silk) screen pre-filter followed by the air filter. Crazy flow path in comparsion to it's competitrors intakes.

Revo's early versions of the software were said to be a disaster. However recently a few have installed their release version of the software and the reports are good and even some dyno plots posted on Audiworld showed some decent gains (for a NA car).

I went Monday to get the Revo Flash but they were unable to upload the files on to my car. I have not heard anything else back from them so I will be looking a different shop and software for the car.

This is a hot potato in the Uk, have a read in the B7 section of www.rs246.com then you will see what I mean .. JDEngineering in holland seem to be top of the tree and seem to have done more work than most.

Unitronic has been making waves for the VW/Audi community as of recently for their awesome big turbo software. I recommend taking a look at Unitronic for the RS4. I have revo for my VW, but I shall be making the switch. Their customer service is also top notch too.

had a customer that did the revo software. then the car wasnt running for about a month. supposedly the issue was fixed and he loves it... most of my customers are waiting for the OCT software which i recommend

From what I've heard about unitronic, gains are not noticeable at all. That is one of the reasons I decided to go with singh autosport. 26hp, 26lb/tq, removal of all flat spots, and better mileage by 10-15%.
