Is there anyone has gone Stg2/2+ and wished they had not?

The best overall package you can have is one which achieves a good balance between power, traction, and handling, and then remap your brain by driver training. It doesn't matter what you drive, those same elements apply.

Yep... I have the power, just need the rest up to the same standard... then it will be a machine :)

Yes, and not just a machine but one which lives and breathes (as stealthwolf says in his forum sig) :happy2:
Taut and tactile, like a fine female.

If i was to buy a K03 TFSi again, i dont think id take it to stage 2+ again either, i would however look at just adding a K04 turbo with a custom map. Its a much cheaper way of achieving 280-300hp on this engine than staying with the K03 and adding the intake, exhaust, intercooler, fuel pump etc.

....The total cost of a K03 to K04 conversion with all necessary parts and map will surely be more than adding an intake, TBE exhaust, intercooler, fuel pump (even an APR).
For a start, when converting a K03 to K04 you would need a TBE exhaust, HPFP, and probably intercooler, anyway. I think you made a mistake there, Sy.
