  oops I know what that is I didn't realise!!

I've been stuck on wanting a ko4 build with rtech stage 3 but having read this topic im being put off! But when I think of my friends stage 3 (bo05 sto) it makes me want ko4 again. He was pushing 360bhp

@r5gtt what numbers are you aiming to hit with stage 2+?

you sure at 20 you'll be capable of handling such power and torque as it might be a huge step for you? Just saying bro be careful. Remembering BBK and handling mods will definitely be needed with the kind of power that will be had from this mod-control and stopping or you're going though the back of the car in front  :scared: these are my concerns but I don't know how much skill you have driving as I've seen how the drivers with golf Gti's in East london drive and it's dangerous for them but more so other road users  :sad1:

350bhp + isn't a joke with a K04 st 2 and all the hardware.

I'm going for whatever niki can get out of my st2 + and will be happy at that as I've driven 300bhp 380bhp motors and been in a 500bhp one which are all rapid so anything close to the first figure will be awesome.

Yeah bro I hear what you're saying and I know the reputation us east londoners have lol. But I don't plan to drive like an idiot on the roads, I've metioned to you I wanna be on the track! That's what my goal is.

For handling I have bilstein b14 coilovers,
Whiteline anti roll bar fitted to the car
And also whiteline antiflift kit with pirellies all around with lots of tread. That may be enough for the handling side so I'm looking at stopping power now

Currently negotiating for better brakes which will be done before any stages. Thinking about 2 pot s3 brakes ... But thinking shall I take a longer time to save up and 4pots... That would be more appropriate for the big power

My close friend has a stage 1, it's noticeably faster than mine as it definately pulls harder on the lower end but it's not enough. Another mate I met thru gti's has a stage 1 rtech mapped gti which was tons of fun to be in too but again it can easily be faster!

I really appreciate your concern mate! Nice to know the car community look out for each other

I just know how easy it is to be on the road and some idiot come up behind you and you think jack you mate and off you go leaving him for dirt  :signLOL:

Stage 1 it's okay but not enough stage 2 + hoping around 270+ bhp should be enough + WMI so another 10+ maybe hp to add so shouldn't be that bad. I have porsche turbo brakes to go on so that's sorted and suspension also sorted so all in all I should have a decent set up once it's all finished and mapped.

Your handling set up sounds good but I was never keen on the Pirelli as they're too hard. I had Pirelli Rosso all round on the tt and they were awful in the wet and I mean aqua planing on the road  :scared: so I went with eagle F1 asymmetrical tyres after my Dunlop sports. Now the guys on here are saying better to go SP4 so looking into those soon as I have plastic tyres on mine from when I bought it although I should have swooped them with the F1 from the tt :signLOL:
