Carbon CAI on stage 1 map. Will it make much difference?

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll get the stage 1 done first and then think about intakes. Not planning on stage 2 as it's out of my budget right now with all the other extra stuff needed. If I can get 250bhp on stage 1 I'll be happy - I think :wink:

daz_pd:
you wont, lol its an addictive game, thought I would be happy stage 1 on my VRS, but have already added intake to that, and have Milltek full TBE system ready to fit lol

Looks like you'll be gutted then.  Stage 1 gti K03 will give you realistically 235-240hp.  The only way you'l get more is by putting it on a pants rolling road.

250-260 is stage 2 territory

Well I guess 240's a step in the right direction. It's no slouch on the stock map but knowing it could be better is the big temptation :wink: It just feels a bit laggy in the lower rev range at the moment, after 3500 it ain't bad at all. Most of the time driving around London it doesn't get the chance to go above 3500 much :rolleye:

Weston:
Mine made 240 the other day on stage 1 R-Tech with a Forge Twintake. Nothing else performance related. It feels a lot quicker now & there's power at any revs. 250 is possible but I wouldnt be disappointed if you don't reach that, it's more about drivability  :driver:
