Revo VW Mk7/7.5 Golf R Stage 3 – Enhanced Turbo Upgrade (Non-GPF)
Revo Stage 3 offers some of the most substantial performance increases on the market. How this power is delivered however is far more important to us, which is why peak figures form part of a much bigger picture and are never the sole focus during the development process. It’s all about the drive, and only Revo offers a perfected balance of power, economy and an exciting drive. On the MQB platform, Stage 3 is the next leap up the ladder.
Stage 3 is not all about peak numbers, it is about unlocking the true potential of the EA888 engine, peak figures may rise to around the 500bhp mark however when you drive the car you will notice a dramatic increase in drivability.
The IS38 ETR Turbo upgrade is designed to provide a completely reliable solution giving up to 520BHP/580NM on EA888 Gen3 vehicles running on stock engine internals.
Enhancing the vehicle with Revo ECU Software gives you much more than just an increase in power and torque. It feels more responsive and offers a huge improvement throughout the whole rev range, something that only the driven will understand and demand.
Only Revo performance ECU Software maintains factory safety levels and additional driving features. You can also choose between four pre-set fuel quality modes depending on which fuel you use. The Revo SPS Software Switch is also available separately, which can be used to quickly switch between a low boost mode and 3 other performance modes for 97, 98 and 100ron fuel quality.
