All Things Mk5 > Performance Modifications
is it wise to get a new intake but not upgrade the exhaust?
Janner_Sy:
i had errors flash up with my bluefin until i went stage 2, same with the shark performance map. Maybe its pot luck, who knows
TrickGTI:
I would say unless you can re-map the car after the exhaust then don't fit it untill you can afford. I left the downpipe untill last just before I went stage 2+ and I'm happy I did leave it till last because I experienced some big flat spots in the rev range and I couldn't have lived with it for long. Just a thought.
Homer:
so are you guys saying that even a full militek after a stage 1 would cause problems with the sensors?? My local revo dealer said that a new exhaust and induction kit would make full use of a stage 1....
Also in response to my original question so it would be fine to put in a new induction kit without upgrading the exhaust?
Janner_Sy:
the induction kit is IMO the better option to do first before you get an exhaust and stage 2 map.
the cat back part of the exhaust wont give you any engine lights as it doesnt change the flow rate or lambda values etc as its not a performance modification
TrickGTI:
You would be better off fitting what mods you want and then getting the map later as with revo the tuner would be able to change settings to optimise your mods. It would proberly be fine doing the map first but to be a 100 % sure it was running sweet then the map last Imo.
