For those wondering, REVO stage 3 is written for the following spec:

Stage3 for 1.8T Transverse K03 based vehicles

Required:

GT28RS turbo setup
high flow exhaust manifold
3” downpipe with decat or highflow cat
2.5”-3.0” cat-back high flow exhaust
550cc injectors
Stock 3bar FPR
S3/LCR/TT225 MAF housing (70mm ID) with stock sensor
Highflow turbo intake
3” cold air feed
FMIC capable of supporting 400bhp (stock IC is not efficient enough)

Recommended:

Upgraded highflow fuel pump – can be in-line or in-tank
Upgraded Clutch
Upgraded Engine Mounts
Boost Gauge
Wideband A/F or lambda display

I have all of that bar the wideband display!

This should be good, I'm really looking forward to this. Hope it all goes well, Rob, and it'll be interesting to hear your comments about the map when you've got it settled.

I'm sure you'll get plenty of support whilst tweaking/setting up - which is worth its weight in gold.

Got my ECU back, plugged it back in, fired it up, no problems, idles fine, no fault codes or engine lights ... perfect!

I look forward to your thoughts on this Rob; Revo, in my opinion, is a very reputable company.

Drive safely . Hope everything beds in without any teething problems! Congrats..

did you take it out for a spin earlier???
what are your early thoughts on your new setup?

 

[RobDon]

Yes I have had it out for a drive, all I can say is AWESOME! The turbo spools up so quick, it's fantastic, I love it. Just got to get the boost up to 1.5 BAR and make some timing advance for the WMI, check the fuelling, timing etc. and we're golden!

............good work Rob, sounds like you have created an ideal setup!!

My photoshoot for Redline magazine is on the 2nd of September, so I'll be spending alot of time getting the bodywork A1 for that! Once I've got it setup I'll get it on a dyno to find out what it's making.

Here's pics of the final setup in my engine bay:

This is BEFORE I have cleaned it!
