Don't worry 2 much dude - everyone asks this question at first.

The best way to get the answer to that is to search - there'll be LOADS of results and if you have time to sift through most of it, you'll be well educated as best you can based on people opinions.

No one person can give a correct answer, only what they like. I like Revo, but can't say its better than CC because i've never had it on my car so can't compare, and even if i could, what works better on my car may not on yours - so you can see hard it is to answer the question.

Also, get the free trials of both and see how the car FEELS in comparison, that should be the biggest factor, along with customer service from your local dealers.

Can't get free trials of either, because it's a TDi

To be honest, they'll probably both have sourced the code from the same, or similar places.

No, but Revo do offer a 30 day money back guarantee, So pay your money, and if ur not happy after 30 days, take it back, i doubt you will be unhappy though !

Hi

Your best bet is to probably read the other threads and se what people say. At the end of the day it comes down to personal choice or having a drive in a car.

You might want to try speaking to or emailing JBS Autos as I think they used to be a Revo dealer but now supply CC. Not saying they will be completely unbiased seen as they now sell CC but when I've spoken to them before they have given good advice.

Not had either done to my car yet but from what I've read the power is fairly similar but the CC gives a smoother power delivery.

I'm saving for the CC ph2 as it is indiviually adapted to your car and what mods you have. I think the Revo is more a generic remap but either way your making a good choice.

You might want to se if the dealers will take you out in a remaped car so you can compare?

Good luck anyway I've just got to keep saving for the FMIC and exhaust system for now!

They pretty much are CC!

Other than the trial comment 'bigjode' answered this perfectly... you won't get a 'correct' answer from anyone. They're both good products!

It's fine asking the question but not so easy giving an unbiast answer.

TBH it's like asking which is best on Toast Jam or Marmite......I like Marmite but you maybe a Jam man :shrug: ........both are great stick to one of the two and you won;t go far wrong and I think you'll be very happy with the results...

JBS are Custom Code effectively BTW.

all very similar on paper.the only true way to find out which one is "better" is the tried and tested "butt dyno",and even then its down to personal taste.
big numbers are great for bullshit corner down the pub,but how it drives varies from tuner to tuner.depenmds what you want
