VOLKSWAGEN Golf VII 2.0 TSI (310 ps) 2017 > Revo Stage 1
All Revo performance Software is designed to safely enhance the driveability of your vehicle, giving access to more power and torque throughout the rev range while maintaining the extensive factory safety mechanisms. Although Revo offers some of the most substantial performance increases on the market, peak figures form part of a much bigger picture and are never the sole focus during development. Revo Software offers a perfect balance of performance, economy, longevity and safety.
The track-inspired Volkswagen Golf R and Audi S3 8V boasts around 310 BHP as Standard, enough to satisfy most. For those who need more, Revo Stage 1 Software unleashes so much more; increased power, torque and smoother more progressive power delivery without compromising on drivability day to day. The Software is the result of months of extensive development, rigorous testing along with real world performance evaluation on our own development Golf R.
Revo believes in data-logging on the road and racetrack as well as testing in controlled dyno conditions, to give you a clearer picture of the performance you can expect. This plays an important role in the Revo development process, ensuring the highest quality products that perform where and when it matters most. Revo is able to test their products extensively through a global network of dealers, allowing for variance in atmospheric conditions, altitude and fuel quality. Testing products in this way are paramount to ensuring that along with more useable power and torque comes refined driveability, something often overlooked.
We knew Stage 1 would really bring the car to life; by utilising the hardware’s full potential and integrating additional safety features unique to Revo such as Cold Start Protection and Temperature Control which actively monitor oil, intake and exhaust temperatures and reduce power if they get too high, you can rest assured that your vehicle is able to take all you can throw at it.
