Performance - Golf MK8 All Models

REVO TORQUE MOUNT KIT More power results in more movement during aggressive acceleration. The stock torque mount is designed to offer comfort over performance and does not manage engine movement effectively. Designed to significantly reduce the loss of torque and drastically improve traction and acceleration, the Revo Torque mount has little to no effect on vibration and harshness levels (NVH) felt in the cabin. KEY FEATURES Dramatically reduce drivetrain movement Improved acceleration and torque Powerflex polyurethane bushings Simple and easy to install with the tool included Doesn't require sub-frame removal for installation   Arguably the most vital engine mount upgrade to consider, testing highlighted that the engines stock lower torque mount allowed a substantial amount of engine movement to occur. Although some improvements were noted during testing of an insert style upgrade designed to stiffen the standard mount, there was a significant increase in NVH felt in the cabin. This was dramatically reduced when completely replaced with the Revo polyurethane torque mount and also improved acceleration.    FITTING KIT A Revo installation tool is included to make removal of the OEM mount and installation of the replacement as quick and easy as possible. This allows the OEM part to be removed and the Revo part to be installed without removing the sub-frame, reducing installation time and the need for axle re-alignment.      OEM COMFORT, AFTERMARKET PERFORMANCE  To achieve the optimal balance between performance and comfort, several different durometer bushings were tested on a Volkswagen Golf Mk7 GTI. Bushings were systematically tested at precise increments at each mount location. A 3-axis accelerometer was used to quantify the NVH levels being transmitted into the cabin, as well as the acceleration of the drivetrain during loading. Accelerometer data gave us a way to compare mount combinations against each other with a low data error percentage and to quantify driver comfort as well as engine movement. Supplemental data was taken from VCDS to ensure each test was standardised over a given throttle, RPM and speed range. The graph shows the amount of vibration measured whilst driving through the gears.    VEHICLE APPLICATIONS Manufacturer Model Engine Year Audi A3 (8V) 2.0 TSI 2012 - 2019 Audi A3 (8Y) 2.0 TSI 2020 onwards Audi Q2 (GA) 2.0 TSI 2017 onwards Audi Q3 (F3) 2.0 TSI 2019 onwards Audi TT (MK3) 2.0 TSI 2014 onwards Audi TTS (MK3) 2.0 TSI 2014 onwards Audi  RS3 2.5TFSI 2016 onwards Seat Leon (MK3) 2.0 TSI 2012 - 2019 Skoda Octavia (Mk3) 2.0 TSI 2013 - 2019 VW Golf GTi (Mk7) 2.0 TSI 2012 - 2020 VW Golf R (Mk7) 2.0 TSI 2012 - 2020 VW Golf GTi (Mk8) 2.0 TSI 2020 onwards VW Golf R (Mk8) 2.0 TSI 2020 onwards   Notes: Simple replacement of the OEM part Lower torque mount kit includes torque mount and Installation Tool Full Mount Kit available, including Engine, Transmission and Torque mount  Performance Engines mounts will produce more vibrations at low RPM then softer OEM Mounts.

DQ381 TCU SOFTWARE  Save £200! when you purchase ECU and TCU software together IS38 ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE VEHICLES The DQ381 gearbox was released into Volkswagen AG passenger vehicles back in 2017. The 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox (0GC) was derived from the advanced development of the previous 7-speed gearboxes, such as the DQ380 (ODE) and DQ500 (0BT), which had been used in commercial vehicles from 2010 and passenger vehicles since 2011. One key feature of the DQ381 gearbox was principally aimed at increasing efficiency. Unlike the DQ380 gearbox, the DQ381 was designed to be used in both FWD and all-wheel drive vehicles on the MQB chassis platform, such as the Mk7 Golf  R, Audi S3, SQ2 and Cupra Ateca.  This 7-speed wet clutch gearbox is already an improvement over the previous DQ250 6-speed, in terms of allowing the vehicle to shift more efficiently, and with a smother gearchange due to the closer gear ratios. However, driving a DQ381 equipped vehicle you will know that there are still areas that can be improved, especially on performance modes. With the stock calibration, you may find that gear shifts happen too low in the RPM range, or too high when in sports mode. These can lead to unsmooth driving, or make the vehicle feel too aggressive. You may have also experienced clutch slip when running performance ECU Software. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE DRIVE. Revo DQ381 TCU software has been designed for the driven. Working on the characteristics of the gearbox to provide a better driving experience and optimal performance when coupled with our performance ECU software. Holding the gears better in sports mode so it’s not changing up early and allows the engine to be in the right power band more of the time. Revo TCU Software gives you much more than just increased clamping pressure and quicker shifts. A large part of development is based on driving scenarios and feedback, ensuring an exhilarating experience. Expect smooth and refined response at low RPM & partial throttle, with optimal shift programming for wide-open throttle driving.   SOFTWARE FEATURES FASTER SHIFTING Shift times are reduced in auto and manual modes. INCREASED LAUNCH COUNTER The stock launch limit has been raised. INCREASED CLUTCH PRESSURE Maximum clutch pressure is raised to prevent slip. INCREASED CLUTCH TORQUE LIMITS Torque limits are raised to allow to run higher torque levels. OPTIMISED SHIFTING Shift strategy now matches our ECU Software. 3 STEP LAUNCH CONTROL Launch at 3 different points based on throttle position. PROGRESSIVE SOFTWARE The software works with stage 1-3 ECU Software. OBD PORT INSTALL Revo Software can be installed quickly and safely via the OBD Port. MONEY BACK GUARANTEE If not 100% satisfied, we'll give you your money back.     GLOBAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME Only Revo operates a Global Development Programme through their network of over 400 Revo Authorised Dealers worldwide. Access to vehicles on this scale enables the calibration team to fine-tune products before release, testing products in a wide range of climates and conditions including altitude, fuel quality, humidity. This also allows Revo to test how Revo products perform in different driving scenarios and formed a vital part in the development of Performance ECU & TCU software.   KEY FEATURES DRIVEABILITY Revo TCU software has been designed alongside our ECU software to not only improve performance but to enhance the feel and driveability of your vehicle. This was the key focus during development, and something that takes time and thousands of miles to achieve. When vehicles are equipped with an Eco/Efficiency drive mode, this uses unique mapping and remains as “stock” to keep all the characteristics. To ensure low RPM driveability, whilst in traffic for example, when you are below 30% throttle input the software will replicate the feel of the stock software. But when required, put the car in Sport/Cupra drive modes, and the gearbox in Drive or Sport and you will be treated to a much-improved sportier feel. PROGRESSIVE SOFTWARE As we produce all our ECU and TCU software in house and have access to vehicles through our global network of authorised Dealers, we have been able to test and refine the software for all ECU stages. This means that our “Progressive TCU” software will work with Stage1 to Stage 3 ECU software on 2.0 TSI DQ381 vehicles. You can install Revo TCU software when at Stage 1 ECU, and it will cover you as you progress through the ECU stages without the need to change TCU software. SHIFTING Gearshift points in gearbox D and S modes have been enhanced and matched with Revo ECU Software. Meaning each gear shift will be at the optimal point to give the best possible performance and fastest acceleration. The shifting times have also been improved and made quicker in D, S and S manual modes. Tested on Stage 2 Audi S3 8V we saw an improvement of up to 0.4s on the 0-60mph time from launch over the stock TCU calibration. The 3-step launch control RPM limits have been optimised to offer 3 different RPM points depending on the throttle input 10-30% launches at 2200rpm, 45-79% launches at 3600rpm and over 80% launches at 4250rpm. When at partial throttle, the gearbox isn’t always looking for the highest gear, it holds the current gear longer. Keeping the turbo spooled and the vehicle within the right power band, thus not changing up and down the gears at much and therefore offering a smoother and more enjoyable drive.

REVO RF0 WHEEL LIGHTWEIGHT. STRONG. FLOW FORMED.  OVERVIEW The RF0 wheel is a flow-formed alloy that's lightweight yet exceptionally strong, designed in-house at Revo HQ in the UK. Flow forming is one of the most advanced manufacturing technologies to enter the wheel industry. Flow Forming Technology involves the application of pressure to the inner barrel of the wheel while spinning and after it has been cast. This process stretches and compresses the aluminium, which increases tensile strength. In this respect, the process shares similar properties to those found in the forging process. The final product is lighter, stronger, has increased elongation, and much greater shock resistance as well as an increased load capacity over regular cast wheels. Whilst the RF0 wheel shares a similar design concept to our previous generation RV0, the more advanced manufacturing process offered through flow forming allows for more definition in the design, particularly noticeable in the spokes and rim edge fillets. By reducing the weight of your wheels 'unsprung weight' your suspension starts to have a much easier time. Each bump can be controlled more quickly and easily. This helps keep your tyre in contact with the road for longer, which is obviously great news for car control and braking. Reducing the 'rotational mass has its benefits too. A classic/timeless motorsport look featuring an embossed Revo logo and branded centre cap to compliment the subtle styling. Available in a choice of Hyper Silver, Gloss Black, Matte Bronze & Matte Anthracite.
