--- Quote from: Revo Kev on July 19, 2012, 05:20:38 pm ---Our software revisions have been tested on all variants of the 2.0TFSI K04 engined vehicles, the graphs were from an ED30.
We recommend using an up-rated FMIC in order to use full boost potential and not see excessive heatsoak, regardless heatsoak is always more prominent on a rolling road.
A HPFP upgrade has never been a requirement for Stage2 software. Revo adjustability is designed to allow the vehicle to be setup to maximise the potential of your car in the given conditions, fuel quality and for the hardware modifications and incorrectly setup car is never going to be 100%.
As per the original post new Stage2 software is designed around the limitations of the standard HPFP.
You can reliably run Stage2+ without an intercooler upgrade, however it is advised to run lower boost settings to prevent excessive heatsoak.

Can't believe I have only just seen this thread... :grin:
Does the above mean that if I go for an update, I can then strip out my APR pump and flog it (and hope I won't need it, like I first thought when I decided to go Stage2)? :confused: :signLOL:

Stop encouraging me lol... Don't think it would be a good idea, like some others my Timing setting is low, 3 I think, always has been but not sure why. Don't want to go down the route of an intercooler etc either.
Not sure if it's worth me getting the update or not...

....If you already have an APR pump installed it can do nothing but good in managing a car's fuelling needs. An APR pump will help smooth and reliable power delivery. It's rather like Revo have posted about their recommendation for an aftermarket intercooler - Not essential but it contributes.
If in doubt, ask JKM - You already know how reliable and helpful they are. :happy2:

I think 2+ is such a well worth transformation over stage 2. Bear in mind sunglasses Ron ran his stage 2+ with a stock FMIC, and that car was worked hard, and had quite a few miles on by the time he got rid. I ran mine for a year with the stock cooler aswell.
