Correctly set up your looking at 20+ id say. If your not thinking of going BT then i think its worth doing. If i was going BT then theres no way id go K03s as its just a waste of time and money.

Even so, if i was to go for ko3s, id want a custom map to get best out of it. Id rather go down jbs04 or something,sell apr stage2 and get it custom mapped.

Agree on the custom map. If my revo stg2 doesnt make the correct figures in my eyes that will be next on my list!

simple then, you may as well go custom now.

Revo is made for the k03 not the S. All you can do is max the settings and hope that you get good results (never the case as alot of people have found)

People are too quick to slate other mappers off, but finny when they get 20+bhp more than 230bhp revo k03s's with the same hardware.

p.s its a different drive to the k03, power holds good too the redline, with a good map youll even see higher than 11psi or whatever revo gives you higher up :)

Power doesnt hold to redlin. Its hardly bigger than a k03. So dont look for some miracle turbo coz it isnt.

And 230bhp on revo stage 2 is no slower than 24xbhp custom map coz they both run out of puff coz the turbo is so small. Fact.

Yeh it is as simple as that if you give the 500+ to get it mapped. I got revo stg2 as a free upgrade from M0rk and it makes decent figures theres no point spending the extra wonga for a extra 10bhp etc.... Oh and as for revo being made for a k03? Does the leon R not have a K04?
