More REVO questions... - SEAT Cupra.net

I've had a search and found the answers to some of my questions, but not others. Apologies if I've missed some answers, which I'm sure I have. :flame:

I'm interested in getting a performance boost on my Ibiza in the next month or two (when it decides to run at all) and as it's still under warranty, REVO seems to be the way to go.

I'd be looking at getting the SPS2, as this has the anti-theft feature, and also two performance programs. Does this mean I can have a program optimised for 95RON and a program optimised for Optimax, and be able to switch between either of those and the standard setup?

Are any of the suppliers kind enough to give SC members discounts doing them on REVO kits? Or is the pricing fixed?

What's the situation if the ECU fails? My car is currently having a new ECU fitted due to water ingress. Presumably, if I'd had REVO installed, that would be lost when the new ECU was fitted. Would I have to pay another £499 + VAT to get it re-REVO'd?

Is there any truth in the rumour a couple of weeks ago that the free trial can leave you with less power than you started with after it expires?

Do you get a rolling road test included in the price, so you can see exactly what performance gains you've got?

Phew! That'll keep you all busy

Cheers!

I believe that if you can prove your ECU was replaced then Revo will reflash it.

I think Revo keep a record of the people cars they upload code to anyway so they could just check your number plate i spose. + if they remember you face.
