REVO question

Probably a dumb question but trying to save myself a trip to the shop. Had my DSG fluid changed the other day and when I picked it up my mechanic had to take the battery out. I know that when the battery is disconnected for something like 20 minutes the computer goes back to stock. And this seemed to be the case. (Gauging off boost and the car seeming to being slower)

Per the dealer I got my revo at, the SPS+ will not turn the tune back on after the battery is disconnected for an extended period of time. Being curious, I tried my SPS out on it anyway and it seemed to take. My logic tells me if tune is still present, it will take whatever the SPS+ tells it. So am I right in thinking this or should I go back and have them reapply the tune?

SPS+ works regardless of how long the battery has been disconnected. I speak from experience..

The APR tune will switch to the program in slot #1 and the ECU will lock itself, have your unlock code ready. Unlock and switch to whatever program you want, done.
