Default STASIS vs REVO tune

My understanding is that STASIS runs REVO tune at 91RON and provides warranty where AUDI will not. But, REVO allows for OBDII port switching up to 100RON.

Can any of you that are running either tune provide some thoughts on performance, issues and why choosing one over the other? Has anyone here had to go back to STASIS for warranty issue? How many miles do you have on the engine with the software tune?

Thanks!

I could be wrong, but initially Stasis had its own unique tune. They then bought Revo and Revo became the current Stasis tune.

I don't have either tune, but there is quite a bit of information from others on this forum and others, such as Audizine, including unconfirmed speculation that Stasis is in financial distress. There have been other threads that discuss interaction between Audi dealers and Stasis when it comes to warranty claims. If you search you should find a lot of information.

Not at all unconfirmed. Stasis is up for sale, REVO left them. Stasis is circling the drain, and early REVO tunes which were very suspect with data logging finally have shown to have blown engines.

LOL! Stasis circling the drain I like that... Revo tunes blowing engines? You don't say... If only people would have listened years ago... lol Maybe some more data will get shared in the near future

Hey bro I might be able to, work is killing it for me right now though You know how certain people are resistant to logging data, then posting it for the good of everyone? I don't really understand why showing the raw data would be a bad thing - if something is going on, people know; If nothing looks bad, great to have the data and reassurance.

Then there is West, who won't look at, understand, or acknowledge data ever.

Yeah, not too many "strategic plans" that involve laying off all employees and ceasing operations for a while end very well.
