its YOU who so staunchly rubbished APRs new 3.1 map when YOU hadnt even tried it.
As above, I am still waiting on the links/proof of this – and I know I will continue to wait because we both know there aren’t any
. Feel free to prove me wrong.

And its YOU who holds events with REVO, so if anyones in someones back pocket its YOU.
As mentioned on the other thread, as Scotland Section moderator, I organised a day which never existed in Scotland before and created a hugely successful event which had a tuner turn up to, something we never had previously. I used a forum sponsor who were willing to travel the distance. I would have used any tuner that had been willing to travel and who were/are adequately represented in Scotland. I tried them all, and only one were willing to do it. End of story. On top, I have purchase proof of every single thing that has ever been on my cars, and the price paid. Sadly no equipment on my car was discounted other than the Milltek.

it was YOU who went out of his way to dismiss ANY apr GPS timing, APR 1/4 Mile results, and APR dyno sheets.
Yep – Because when you compare apples with apples, you don’t use pears. You were comparing a Golf R with DSG vs a Leon Cupra with front drive and manual gears. You were also comparing timing from a well set up event at an airfield vs one person in a car with a gadget on a random road that could have been downhill to do the same thing

So Al YOU are now claiming the revo code on the 2.5TFSI for example DIDNT cause me and others misfires and limp modes. Hundreads of pounds WASTED trying to fix a
problem which was all map related. I should have listened to the user with other maps and tuners who said less boost is faster (turned out to be true) and in turn when I did change maps for a less hard boosting one, it reflected in GPS timing, and I no longer got misfires or limp modes!
I am not claiming anything – you are, and you always do. Being honest though, with the recent incident with your car, I am not sure what I believe from you to be honest – first it was a drivetrain issue, then it was engine and clutch....

Engines fine, drivetrains not.

I don’t wish you or your car any ill, but you have seriously dented your credibility by constant references to APR, constant ripping of another certain company all the time and part stories – your experience with a certain tuner may not have been to the level you insist on, but other people have good experience, and I like to try and see both sides of the story – and I have certainly heard both sides of one particular story.

unethical rebranding of BSH products? The same product line that the factory attempted to w.h.o.r.e out to APR and just about every other tuning house in the world? All the other tuners had enough integrity to not do such a back hand deal. The ins and outs of it are very murky.
What they do is their business. I think you must be pretty naïve if you don’t realise that most people see you as unofficial APR rep this forum

good at promising things, but always fail to deliver going by their past history…the twin diverter they showcased at Inters last year, never came to fruituition.
….Makes one wonder why has their lead programmer left…. why have so many people made the switch away…. why did milltek ditch ……
Saved me spending 10 minutes finding anything about you ripping in to them, and this qualifying it made me chuckle
Poverty said:
Seriously people, be open minded on the subject of tuning
If what you posted above was not anti/dismissive, I don’t know what is
.
Once again, I will say this – I AM HAPPY APR ARE IN THE UK BECAUSE COMPETITION IS HEALTHY AND IT ENSURES BETTER PRODUCTS AND BETTER PRICES FOR US THE CUSTOMERS. I HOPE ALL THOSE WHO DECIDE ON HAVING APR PRODUCTS ON THEIR CAR ARE VERY HAPPY WITH THEM (not sure how many times I have posted this kind of thing now)
On a side note, we both need to cut this out as feuding is against the forum rules not to mention petty, pointless and childish. I agree with the comments above. Graeme, I will no doubt hear from you by phone as usual on all updates and will only post about your car in this thread moving forward.
