revo isnt the best for the vag range do search for jabba sport or custom code

you cant quantify "the best"

its down to what each driver wants int terms of power, performance, driveability etc etc etc

research is the best thing you can do, along with trying as many as you can, rather than going off someone elses point of view

sounds like the turbo pipe has popped off, just something simple

not saying you're wrong but what would the eggy smell be tho?

i was just thinkin if the coil pack had gone then the engine would chuck unburnt fuel into the hot cat.. which gives off an eggy smell (and can damage the cat :( )

could be a number of things, first off check turbo pipes, especially with revo, it increases the boost pressure = OE hose clips just spring off.

Next pull each coil out and check them, if its gone youll know about it!

Coil packs do make an eggy smell, but i certainly wouldnt drive it like you say you are! get it AA'd or something.

if a coil pack had gone it would run but really lumpy unless 2 or more had gone at the same time? unlikely,
the eggy smell could just be smell of the fuel???

ok well it sounds pretty likely then that your cat has died. but the question is, what has caused it to die..... its possible, like i said before that coil pack has popped and the result of this would be unburnt fuel going into the CAT which has killed it (causing the "black smoke"). or maybe its something else?.....

like flashbsd said, try pulling them out cos you will know if one has died!

The eggy smell is made when the cat gets too much fuel in it but it it not the sort of thing that goes pop and fails. From what you described i would guess at a turbo pipe popping off.This would make the air/fuel incorrect and give off the smell. Also makes the car not want to tickover corectly.If anything else it could be a coil pack gone down but they dont normally make a pop on failure ?Hope this helps! :bleh:
