- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ส.ค. 2020
- I Took my Transporter T6 150bhp DSG to #onlyrevo for a stage 1 tune and filmed an awesome behind the scenes video, which covers and explains everything that Revo do when you take you vehicle in for a stage 1.
If you are thinking about remapping your own vehicle, you don't want to miss this!!
Don't forget to subscribe to the channel if you haven't already and like and share the video with anybody you think may benefit from this...
Revo really stood out to me with something like 17 years industry knowledge and a fantastic team of friendly, knowledgeable employees.
They have worked hard to produce the best software packages for the VW Transporter for any of the stock engines available.
Also don't forget to check out Revo's official video here: • VW Transporter T6 - RE...

Holy moly!!! ... lowered, tuned, modded to the highest order!!! And some cool videography too!!
😂🙌 Thanks Howard!! "Its not an addiction, Its not no no It isn't.......Okay a little 🤣. Guess what! last week i finally registered a sky account! i will drop yo an email and we can finally schedule something 👍
Steve Field excellent Steve !! Maybe you can send me a short bit of Van tour footage 5 mins and we can enjoy a look around your van together!!
Yes. No problem at all 👍. Sounds good.
Hi Steve just had remap by Martin at pendle proformance 102 BHP after remap 181 BHP awesome results pulls like a train.
Hi Raymond, nice one! good results... talking off camera with Paul from Revo I realise there are multiple files to suit the different BHP models and they can get almost all of them up into the late 100's which is very impressive. it certainly is clever stuff :-)
Looks ace Steve super fast 💨
🙌Thanks Jay, it moves for a LWB van now 😊
I want this van😍absolutely stunning van
Thanks buddy🙌
Great content Steve, I really enjoyed the video. Something else for me to add to the to do list. 😁
🙌 Thanks Adrian, 😎 lists are good! you get to tick it off!!👊
Hi Steve another great vid and mod done. Just love the stance on the van
In the vid I definitely need air in my life 👍
Leighton Watkins 🙏thanks buddy really appreciate it 😎. I am really chuffed with the Airride.. definitely recommend it🤙
Steve Field I wonder if you could possibly tell me the set up you got for your air ride and how much did it set you back as I’m seriously thinking of going down that road
Leighton Watkins no probs buddy. I paid £5650 for my set up but watch this video where I detail what it is and the alternative as you can have same brand for less or add the 3H to it and pay about £600 more. Check this vid as it covers everything 👍 th-cam.com/video/pt8ldZ3z740/w-d-xo.html
Steve Field thanks Steve
That is one sick t6 I have a brand new 2020 caddy maxi 2.0lt 102 6sp dsg nd it's going for a stage one map up to 190hp I can't wait problem is we have no revo here in Northern Ireland.. Brilliant Job keep it up
Thanks dude! 🙌 if you haven't checked out the video on Revos official channel go a check it out on their they have professionally shot the video and it looks great! Sounds like you have yourself a great little project of you own... let me know how you get on with it 👍
@@SteveField I will buddy thanks for taking time to reply
Robert there are Revo dealers in NI check out www.onlyrevo.com/dealerlocator
Awesome vid mate.
🙌 Thanks buddy 👍
Awesome van,, great info
John Dearn 🙏thank you
Steve, your videos are sensational. I’m actually hooked. Your videos have really helped me in my journey in transporter modification
Thank you for the kind comments Craig! 🙌. I’m really glad they have helped your journey 👌😎
Nice one Steve. Mine is a 150 manual and have been wondering about this. Be interesting to follow this over the longer term to see how you get on with it day to day 👍🏻
Thanks Alan, yes good idea I will run it for a period and perhaps in another update video or a Q&A ill go over things. very pleased at this point 👌
Steve Field that is a good idea as I would imagine there are quite a few owners who would like to take the plunge but are nervous about it. Makes for another good video too 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Steve, great vid... I'm thinking of getting Revo stage 1 on a T6. Has there been any issues since?, any engine issues or weirdness?. Would love to hear your feedback after living with it for so long. thanks,
Should have taken it to Revo, He said no no no 😜
😂😂😂
For a while I've been struggling with the thought of remapping my 2018 T6. It's a 150 HP DSG, just like yours, and I am very happy with the way it drives. This video pushed my a little closer to having a Stage 1 done. I need to ask though, what's that done to your fuel consumption? Thank you.
It’s been a great modification and several months later I’m still as pleased. I can’t really say I’ve noticed any effect on economy but it does apparently help with mpg
@@SteveField "Help". I was concerned about fuel consumption going up, so that's great news. Thank you.
Great video loved watching it, he was the theme tune music by? Sounds like a very good track
GT Tristan 🙏thanks buddy😎 the music is of several tracks throughout the video. I use epidemic sound to source my music if that helps 👍
Another great video. Just a thought now you have had this done for a while now see in comments that mpg about the same ? But was wondering do you have the dpf light coming on more frequently if it comes on at all and add blue is it all the same as before ?
Thanks very much🙌. No, absolutely no lights from DPF coming on the ad blue is just the same.. no more no less on that. Consumption to me appears to be identical but poss a few extra miles out of a tank🤙. And the after run regen seems as frequent as prior to the map in my opinion. Overall I would say I’m chuffed with it👌
Bit late to the party on this. But have you looked at having the TVS Engineering DSG software upgrade? That supposed to transform the gearbox
Hi, in talks about this mid at the moment 😎👌. Will be coming once we’re out of the lockdowns🤙
Is your rear view mirror a camera?! My mind is blown! 🤯 did you do a video on that? Where did you get it from?
Hi Alan, yes it is. it has a front and rear camera with dash cam recording and rear view recording simultaneously. great for that van as when the tv is down or loaded up in the rear it makes no difference I can still see behind perfectly. I will make a video as I haven't to date but here is a link to the product👍www.amazon.co.uk/AUTO-VOX-Streaming-Mirror-Rotatable-Reversing/dp/B07GFKBS2H
Steve Field awesome thanks Steve! I’ve been going through all your videos and find them really helpful with my can and modifying it as well as entertaining. Keep it up!
Thanks Alan🙏 I’m really glad they are helping. And most of entertaining 😎👍
Omg renfield from Bram Stokers Dracula, Master,Master Pls Revo my T6 😂
Wear did you go to get it dun
Hi Steve another top vid😁
Does the stage 1 include dsg map or is that something extra to have done ?
Hi Lucio, Thanks buddy. Re the map no I did here Paul say the other code on a screen was to do with gearbox software... we only loaded the stage 1 File on the ECU for this visit. 👍
Hi Steve ,
Vans looking good ...wonder what diff the map would make to mine it’s already 180 standard ...
Del
Thanks Buddy 🙌... I know that they do all different maps so if yours is a 180 from factory it stands a good chance it would be be over 200 with a stage 1.
Do they offer a warranty on there remaps?
I dont think they do but thats not official...worth checking with Revo as this might have changed in the last couple of years.
Hi very good video, just curious did you have DSG remapped as well as engine? Cheers
Hey thanks buddy. No the DSG was not mapped just the engine software👍.
Another great video. Does it affect your insurance?
Thanks 🙌 it might affect some but my insurance were told the following day, they had the info on their system for stage 1 and it was nice and straight forward for me! No extra cost either which is a bonus. (note: that might not be the case for others i guess all depends on insurer, tuner, and age range etc..)
@@SteveField thank you. That's interesting. How about your warranty with VW?
Hi Steve,great video. I was wondering if this affects your warranty?
Paul Weston Hi Paul, thanks 🙏.
Yes it does if the warranty issue is ECU related. they said their is no software available anywhere where the warranty is not effected on if it’s an update at mai dealer etc...
Brilliant video, did you get the filter also? Does it use more fuel or is it the same ish?
👍 thanks, no filter just pure software and I haven't really done enough miles to say concrete but its seems to feel about the same... Its due to give a better return but trouble is im still playing with it. I need the novelty to wear off so I an measure it lol
Put the pedal to the metal, have fun but keep us posted. Remember, stay safe, control the van, save lives 🚥
As always, good video.
Why did you choose Revo opposed to anyone else ?
Why did you not go straight to Stage 2, or 3 ?
Richard Harvey thanks 🙏. I have always seen Revo marketing and attending big shows and been drawn to them. They have 17yrs in their field and still growing etc... I was invited by them to come and have a stage 1 loaded giving me the opportunity to film a behind the scenes of the process. After visiting now I would always use them 👍 so who knows maybe there’ll be a stage 2 video 😂 take a look at the official video on Revo’s channel it’s 👌
@@SteveField sounds like they gave you a free remap? If so that should be made clear in the vid description.
Hi I had a vw transporter 20 years ago and fitted a tuning box on the M6 services and it became a devil van
so know how you feel
its been great since the extra power was installed.
Think it might be a good idea to upgrade your van breaking system next 🐣😂
Clive millington 😂. I know ha ha.. luckily I went for a T32 with the BIG brake upgrade. They come in handy now 😂
Great video and journey so far. Where do you get your music from out of interest?
timborrill thanks buddy🙏. I get all my music from epidemic sound. All licensed etc 👌
@@SteveField Excellent! Do a few videos myself now and again! Does it still allow you to monetize your content?
@@timbosplice Yes. its a monthly bill and allows all licensing and monetising
Have you got your LDT sticker?
No I don't have one buddy.
That roller cabinet looked a bit close to the body work, think i would have been happier to see some soft rubber on the back just incase it got shoved into my nice paintwork.
I feel you! very observant too👍. but lucky Paul the man at the keys owns the stunning red T5 and knows how much we pride our vehicles so i felt it safe hands. (it did have a brake on the wheel too I think).
Hi Steve. I wonder where are the V3 headlights ?
Yes I have reinstalled the Transporter HQ V2's as personal preference i prefer this unit and I have the H7 LED Lap in them too. they are the best👍
Steve, been a subscriber for a while now & I’m reaching out for some help, bought a Transporter Conversion that’s got coil over sports suspension, it’s set a bit low, having trouble getting over speed bumps. Can you or any fellow subscriber recommend somewhere to get it set properly? I’m based in Liverpool. Keep the videos coming Fella, love ‘em
Hey Michael, thanks for the great comment 👍. Great to hear you have bought yourself a transporter 👌👊. Do you know if you were given the adjusting tool with the van? It looks like a large semicircle spanner with some teeth (designed to interlock with the adjustment rings) if so it can be a relatively easy driveway mod to raise the height if you have some adjustment left on the coil overs. (Different makes different levels.) ie so lows will be low even at their top height but B14’s are normally wound rite down for a low ride so plenty to raise it by..... if you would just prefer to take to a garage I can put a shout out on the forums for your nearest custom approved garage?
Steve Field Thanks for the quick response Steve, I did get the tools with the Van but I’m a bit apprehensive to be honest. A shout out would be great if you don’t mind. Don’t want to sound like a wuss but I’d like it done by someone in the trade. Don’t want the Van to start driving like a clowns car from the Circus. Thanks again 👍🏻
Michael Riley no problem buddy!! Happy to help and probably really wise words 👍. Somebody running there eye over things can ensure all the bushes and are all 👌 and will give you piece of mind for a level adjustmet👍. I’ll come back to you shortly 👍
Michael Riley Hi Michael, So I have had a couple of strong recommends that a not on the doorstep but within a drive you would probably be happy to make. 1st being crsperformance.co.uk/. They are qualified and happy to carry out this type of work and also my friends @transporterHQ they have confirmed they would also be able to help and I know personally are very qualified in lowered vans!! transporterhq.co.uk. With either you would want to call and advise you are going so it’s not a wasted trip as both busy places. Hope this helps and if I hear of anything nearer to you later I’ll forward the info 👍
Steve Field Thanks Steve your a gent, I’ll look them up & let you know how I get on, looking forward to your next Mod, maybe a warp drive or a flux capacitor. All the best Mick
Hi Steve! Another great video!👍 What about the reliability of the engine after the modification?
I also have a t6 with the same engine configuration.
Jens Dobernecker Hi Buddy, this was a concern for me too and the reason I went with REVO due to the testing they carry out on the files before they release them. The increase to 190 make no know issues with reliability and it’s on many vehicles now so well tested. It just opens up power that is already available to the engine via software so not like adding hardware parts and stretching things. Hope that helps👍
@@SteveField Thanks mate!
Im living in Germany...trying to research a reliable company to do this... i think tec-power at Remagen next to me will be my choice.Stay safe!😉
Jens Dobernecker you too buddy! Good luck and let me know how you get on 🤙
@@jensdobernecker609 Speak with our German Distributor Werk2 Automotive ;)
@@RevoHQ Do hey have service partners in the Rhine area
Any mpg improvements in real world figures?
Now that I have put some miles on I think I can see an improvement. its hard to fully tell as I didn't really measure the original figures. but overall im really pleased with the drive now👌
Had a revo map put on my 102bhp t6. Sadly it’s absolute junk. Van now has a course idle to it, nasty harmonic vibrations between 1k and 1.8k rpm, judders like feck when opening the throttle wide in 5th, and seems to have pre ignition issues. Having it removed next week and a proper remap done elsewhere. It is a very low mileage van and was nice to drive before hand. The maps made the van hideous to drive.
sorry to hear that, I wonder if there is a updated file or its worth talking to Revo about it? I have to say the software on my set up has been really good for me. I am def no expert in this field, and I take you along with me in the video for my experience. The file going on and the road test were 1 week apart and apx 300 - 400 miles in so far and its 👌.
Sorry to hear this. We don't currently do software for the 102PS Euro 6 T6, so do you have a Euro 5 engine (from the T5?) If so this software has been on the market for years and gets great reviews. Please email support@revotechnik.com and we will happily look into this further for you, please include your VIN so we can check software installation details. Don't forget that all Revo software comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you are entitled to your money back if you're not happy. But we would like to investigate this further. Look forward to hearing from you.
Hi revo, thanks for the reply, much appreciated. It is a Euro 5 102 bhp engine. The van had the map installed at 40k miles and has just got to 41k. I went for revo as it does have good reviews for the type of flash on map. The issues appeared as soon as the map was done by an authorised agent in the south. Because of the distance to them it’s taken some time to get the free time to take it back to them. As I said, it’s booked in for this Thursday so hopefully get some sort of idea what’s going on. The van was great before hand. It seems like either poor timing or to much torque or both,but would rather let them give the right answers. Most of my driving is motorways and I don’t rag it around like a boy racer. If anything I’ve been driving it like the engine has been made of glass recently. Biggest fear is it’s damaging the DMF or gearbox etc. Hopefully all goes well and it makes it there Thursday. I will let you know what they find.
@@skylineadz Yes something doesn't sound right and the Revo dealer will data log and speak with our support team so we can get to the cause of your issues. As we have mentioned above this software has been around for a while, and has need installed on hundreds of vehicles. Fingers crossed you get it all sorted. Feel free to drop us an email if required to support@revotechnik.com
Hey revo, the revisit proved fruitless and they achieved nothing despite saying they had fixed part of the problem. I’ll give you a call Monday to discuss.
How come you did 190 and not 200 I hear 200s fine with 7 speed
I was guided by Revo and the software that they had developed, to my knowledge the stage 1 map was set at 190 for a few reasons but have to say it’s really good on all levels nearly a year on👍
150bhp to?
It took it to 190bhp on a stage 1
150 hp to 190hp come on wen i mapped my mk4 golf pd130 myself i made an extra 74hp now runnin 204hp and still safe
back in the day..I used to strap K&N's on, plugs ANYTHING the aftermarket world could give me without taking a head off a car and all for about 7BHP 🤣 but I recently added some extra weight into the van with all the kit and basically this extra BHP has sorted that and given me a decent pedal all from a bit of software.... mind blown.....however hats off to you for your results dude. 🙌 very impressive 👍
@@SteveField thanks for that mate really appreciate it
24k 👌that sounds awesome 👍😎
24k sounds spot on 😎any vids posted on yours where we can hear or see her.
Mines 260bhp stage 2
That sounds sweet!! 👌👌
Did you get your dpf gutted?
They did a DPF regen if that’s what you mean? Did it before loading new software👍
@@SteveField no I thought you had to get it gutted to have a remap on a diesel that's all. Great video!
Thanks buddy 👍
@@cplmackyp3 All Revo stage 1 diesel software is designed to work with a stock vehicle and all its components, including DPF.
By gutting the DPF, you gain in some areas, but loose in others, it also becomes illegal & wouldn’t pass a correct MOT test with a DPF delete, DPF deletes are smoky too, why would you got cowboy mode on such a stunning van, Stage 1 on these is perfect 👌🏼
Very well done Steve, unfortunately we will be leaving the VW club we love our Harvey but need something bigger to tour a bit of Europe when allowed Got a trip booked for the NC500 in Scotland in the new van.
Link attached if you're interested, will follow the channel and the VW scene still.
Channel is growing nice to see, you put a lot of effort in and it shows.

Thanks John! Sad to hear that Harvey has to go but they arn't the biggest campers are they. thanks for continuing to follow ... Now the van is pretty much fully modded out I will concentrate on perfecting my craft and trying to raise the bar with my camerawork.... I cant see a link to check it out?
@@SteveField @t
dpf & egr delete it would drive alot better just sayin but very nice van
Thanks Buddy 👍
And goodbye to the guarantee
