what is the point of a stage 2+?

Homer:
From what I have read this would only give an extra 5 hp? So is it really worth going through the extra cost and pushing the limits of the car for such a small gain? Or is there other gains to be had? Thanks

vRStu:
Have you compared the torque curves??  :evilgrin:

HP is pub talk, Torque is where it's at.

RagingKileak:
It is awesome when you get it.

....Naturally anyone who has done it will say it's worth it if only to justify their own decisions. That doesn't mean that it's not worth it but modding/tuning is financially a path of diminishing returns - As you gain performance it costs more and more to achieve less and less.

What's 'best' is what suits YOU the best in what you want your car to do. For me personally there is no point in Stage2+ for my car even if I didn't have to pay for it. If I want more performance I'd be wiser to buy a new car with more performance out of the box (as standard) - RS3 for example.
