    Hi and sorry. We dont discuss which is better on here. It always starts a heated debate which causes friction. Revo and APR are so close to being the same it would surprise you. Either one and you will be happy!
    You wont look back once you flash your ECU, no matter which one you choose.
    Cheers and all the best with it, Andrew

      Luckily for you, you don't really have a choice. If I remember correctly you're in Brisbane, there is only an APR/Oettinger dealer up here.

      APR and Oettinger are exactly the same, except Oettinger comes with a warranty for the extra money.

          Anyway, don't ask which tune is better, they are all so similar. No doubt if you do a search you will find many opinions.

                as mean as this may sound, please use the search function on this forum before posting questions like this. there is limitless info on the GIAC, REVO and APR/Oettinger ECU's and debate after debate on which is better (all ending in the realisation that APR is far superior - just joking guys). just in future, don't just post the first thing that comes to your head, do a bit of research on the site first....only takes 2 mins.

                Cheers,

                    I am really intersted in this topic too!

                    Can we have some comments on the APR or REVO?

                    Ie how is feel while driving, more torque down low for one etc...

                    Coz on spec sheet, REVO have more kw and APR have more torque...

                    I am planning to get chipped soon, but really dunno which one to go...

                      Go and ask for a trial - it's a subjective thing and ther best way to find out is to suss them all out for yourself.

                            Just out of curiousity (will probably get mine done after first service) - which button do you hit to switch maps, can this be done on-the-fly (ie not idling and stopped or with engine off), and if you're to put a password protection on it, do you get a keypad? thanks

                              APRs is done with the cruise control stalk. The pin code is put in the same way.

                              You need to have the car off, only takes about 30 seconds though. But in reality, once you turn it on, you won't want to turn it off
