Nice one mate :)

Now when you going to get it in the rollers?

Soon Hopefully i just need to sorta few things out really..

I cant really boot it (full Boost) till i get a MBC as this Stage 3 is of alex large Gt28 which is mapped to 1.6-1.7bar...

So i need it to turn it down to 1.4bar the fueling is spot on actually i just need to fit a 4bar fpr which i require then its all good...

Can get a few Miles on it now...

It is 550s at 3bar yeh.

Can i ask how the fuelling is bang on and its mapped for a totally different turbo setup?

Mine is using Alex's map for what was the same turbo setup and its no where near bang on.

Why not just get this mapped properly, its obvious your after as much power as you can get and the only way your going to get that is to get it mapped properly.

This isnt the first time either.... without sounding harsh its abit of a bodge. custom map FTW.

Although Im sure revo stage 3 could produce the goods if it was an IHI map I dont think a gt28 map is wise especially as the IHI does not like high egts which can be helped with the map. Without the right map the whole set up will not be working to its optimum safely. Spend the money and get it mapped properly. Also theres no point going for as much power as possible or getting any more mods to help with more power as above the 330ish bhp the turbo wont be able to take it.

No ones giving you grief from what i can see, just people advising you the correct/safe way to do things.

Buying things on the cheap isnt always the best solution.

Danny, fair play for doing it mate, but no one is having a go, but more advice as Benny has said really

as the saying goes, if it aint broke then dont fix it, and in this sense, going down a tried and tested route (being the custom map in this case) is what is best route to get the most and safest/reliability aspects from all the work you have done, hence why all of us are in agreement in giving you this piece of advise (I dont need to tell you how to suck eggs mate, but feel we are repeating ourselves sometimes...)

in a sense it would be like me trying a generic map on my hybrid k03??? why...I dont know as I could see no reason to do it...hence I have done the custom map route as I know it will get the best from my setup and ensure eveything is working spot on....so a little baffled as to why you would do the same

buy cheap....buy twice mate:)

I would'nt call it cheap benny...

Like in my earlier Posts If the Stage 3 doesnt work...Il get a refund agree'd by BDM...
I wanted to try something New as i knw Wilko Ran stage 3 on his IHI With 550cc Injectors And made excellent Power...(IHI)

But He ran his Extremely Hard very Hard Indeed Boost wise Which I aint.... On full Boost Im seeing 11.5 AFR, Now from what ALEX & KEV have said aswell as others that Pretty Darn Good...Since I got the map Done it idles better and spools Better too..

Ive only Took it to the 6.3krpm to see what the afr was as me and alex were discussing it...Ive gotta use the Vag-com & lemmiwnks to see whats what and were i stand But im on full boost which appears to be 3280rpm....(20psi)
I Fully well know that a CUSTOM map is always the best option but theres only been 2 people Running stage 3 on IHI WIlko & Now me....

Worth a Serious Punt is it not...Just seems every update i do to the IHI Seems to get reasonable question then someone else will Jump On to the band wagon...Mensioning no names...

Jamie:

Im Not a fool jamie i hear the same things over and over but never yeah give it ago see if it works....Which for me is what its all about...

Im not gonna get in too a arguement or debat about it but thats how i feel plus others have noticed it too...More SCN Friends to me...

Bill:
Thats wasn't a sly punt at you i was just sayin thats all....
