Ed30 stage 2 advice

<< < (2/2)

Think I may leave the stage 2 ! Thanks for the advice. It has uprated brembo brakes, the up issue DV valve and neuspeed p flow induction. I'm still after some mods to go with my stage 1 map. Thinking maybe a downpipe and catback exhaust ? Don't wana be paying a thousand for a TBE. What do you fellas think ? Is it worth it ?

A downpipe on top of what you have is basically stage 2, loads of guys still use OEM intakes at 2+.

You will need a remap tweak as a CEL will come on when factory downpipe is removed, some report clutch slip right away.

If you fancy it, go for it. I will have to sell mine fairly soon so keeping it as is performance wise, but if she's a keeper, go all out but budget for clutches, tyres etc.

Went to BCS today and booked in for a down pipe with sports cat. Can't wait to get it fitted ! Then ill see how it goes from there  :laugh:

Thanks for the advice anyway fellas !

^^^^ Nice one!  :congrats:

Do you need intake to go to stage 2? I've heard conflicting things about going stage 2.

On top of downpipe and sports cat, i'm seeing that it's not neccessarily required, but some are saying it is needed, with some quoting 40bhp gains or something silly with an intake on stage 2.

Is an intake neccessary? Does it make a big difference power-wise?
