    Canyon Red eh...  So that's what mine would look like with LMs Big Smile

    How are you finding the Revo on the AGU?  I'm toying with either a Revo or a CC remap at the moment, and CC is winning purely on cost alone at the moment with the 30% forum discount - would be good to hear how the Revo is on the AGU first hand.

     I do have spacers but with the heavy stuff i sometimes have in the boot i dont want it to catch on the liners as they are pretty close.

    As for the revo, my personal opinion is i couldnt fault it, i had the area manager come out and do mine, and the difference straight up was amazing, obviously i dont feel as quick now as im used to it, but it is still great and never made the car skip a beat
