Ecu Evolution???

[jamie_20vt]

Just wondering if anyone has had a remap by this company. they have a few branches in the uk and they came to me via a friend suggestion on face book as they are opening a new shop near me in Northampton.

Anyway, they quoted £225 & vat to remap my standard cupra with a 42bhp & 60nm gain. seems very good to me

sorry if this has been covered or in the wrong section but nothing came up in a quick search!

Cant say i have ever heard of them so cant comment on their quality of work. If it were my car id stick to the big boys, Revo, P-Torque, Custom Code etc

 

[tom w]

likewise really but i would add jabbasport to the list

 

[cupramillo]

Yup them too, Jabba do good maps for the mk3! I chose Revo as i had a local'ish dealer and heard good things about them

 

[jamie_20vt]

yeah i had never heard of them either! i have a revo dealer about 200 yds from my house. need to get myself over there for a free trial!!!

hi mate soz for late reply . its been bugging me as i havnt had access to forum . i had stage 1 map with these mate i paid 200 last year in onvy cupra . good people to work with but when i went on dyno i had a major fuelling problem down to map. got graphs to prove. i had stage 2 with badger5 then fuelling sorted mate. the thing is with these people who do it for cheap they copy and paste maps ect then store onto ecu. dont get me wrong was still fast i pulled 222.2 bhp with this.go with someone who does this for living . badger5 / revo /jabba / ect

they mapped my leon and i was impressed by them. especially since they came to my work and did it there

 

[daves ibiza]

there good like that mate but wouldnt recomend to anyone .now as my fuelling was all over the place and could of done more damage than the worth of it. and copy and pasting maps carnt be good

my old leon was mapped by them and it was brilliant, i now have a skoda 1.8t which is 215 bhp and it shifts, never any problems.

i think you are wrong about the maps as i was talking with the tuner whilst waiting for software and they buy them in, cant remember the company name he said tho

nah mate proven cheap maps expect problems . lucky i caught mine in time

 

[chrisjackson]

well im just saying my experience. 60000 miles in my leon no issues, skoda 30000 miles no issues. ive sent mates to them no problems

before both of these cars i had an ibiza with revo on it and it caused no end of problems. it was a nightmare so i guess revo are poor?

after ringing round looking for my remap i found all tuning companies slag each other off! they are sales men at the end of the day looking to sell you a map.

 

[daves ibiza]

i think revo would be alot better than ecu evolution mate. been around alot longer than ecu evolution and have proved its point. aint the guy who does it your dad? so you would stick up for the company.

keep to people who no's best

 

[chrisjackson]

there nothing to do with me, im just giving a report on cars ive had done, like you said stick to what you know

I know this is an old thread, but I've got my Mk2 Toledo Tdi 110 booked in for a remap on Saturday morning.

I'm a bit worried now that I'm doing the right thing, it's £150 inc vat which seems reasonable. They also have 100% feedback on ebay.

Advice please?

i've had two revo'd cars, 1st pd140 leon and currnetly got a 20vt cupra ibiza stage 2 which is great too although needing a fmic soon, also june this year i got my octy vrs done by rtech in hinckley they also are mobile too. i've been very pleased with that. lots of ppl on the golf gti forum use them too and i would definately use them again.

 

[daves ibiza]

buy cheap you buy twice in my opinion , stick with trusted dealers

 

[Cupra_Red]

Ecu Evolution are very good guys and know what they are doing i had my audi tt 225 mapped there and they did a great job, also a mates a4 2.0tdi was mapped there before he bought it and its a nice map power is smooth and fuel consumption is excellent

 

[fatfingers73]

Thanks for the mixed feedback.

I don't really want to pay someone £250-£300 for 30 minutes work, when ECU Evolution will do the exact same thing for £150.

Or am I missing something?
