Default 0:60 in 3.7 sec for 2015S3 With Revo software!

Just read on their website. It costs $600 for the mod. I think no hardware changes involved.

I expected this engine to be mod friendly. This is partly why I quit Evos.

Per Revo site...

"Our test vehicles have clocked repeatable 0-60 MPH times of 3.7 seconds along with a 0-100MPH times of just 9.2 seconds using Racelogic GPS performance equipment. Car tested on private test track, on road legal tyres on Shell vPower.

An impressive improvement over the manufacturer quoted times of 4.9 seconds to 60MPH and 12.3 to 100MPH for the DSG equipped test mule."

Off topic but why do you think Evos aren't mod friendly? I had $17K into my Evo 8 and had very few issues, none with the actual motor.

How would you handle warranty issues should they arise? Thanks.

The website says to revert to stock if car goes to dealer for repairs. I read it, but couldn't find it on the site when I looked the second time, but I know it's there.

Just the opposite. They are mod friendly. There is nothing new for me in the Evo world. I've owned them all since 2003 and nothing new in the pipeline. This is an adequate replacement.

Just went to the Revo website. This really does look appealing........ Thanks for the heads up.

I just had the new APR flash. Seriously fast! Check out the APR site for stats. 0-60 claimed 3.6 sec on pump gas, and I don't doubt it.
