Title: blue fin stage 2
Post by: islander on February 20, 2013, 07:24:16 am
hi,
well im running blue fin stage 1 and like others on here im pretty its not 300 bhp!
i was wondering if i can go to stage 2 on nothing but a cat back? it says i need a sports cat and filter but a cat with less cells and a panel filter make that much difference?
and it would probably only make around 300bhp like most people make on a normal stage1?

just got me thinking!

max.

Ah ok! Haha cheers.
Came from a focus st on blue fin stage 2
Said the same mods needed but you could run them on stage 2 with no other mods ?
