Stage 2 doesnt feel a hell of a lot quicker but it is much nicer to use, the power comes in smoother and is spread out across the range. Basically you have to do less dancing with your right foot to get the power down.  Or at least that is what it was like on mine.  :happy2:

Are you running any other mods apart from the TBE? If not I wouldn't think there'd be a big difference, afterall the stage 2 map is to attain best possible performance from the hardware bolt ons. Do you not get the CEL light with the stage 1 map and TBE?

I have Stage 2 with Neuspeed P-Flo, BCS Powervalve TBE with decat.

seeing as i had my downpipe fitted before the stage 2 mine was a LOT louder on boost after the map. normal driving it feels better, i felt a noticable difference from Stage 1 to stage 2.  I was getting 248 on stage 1, standard exhaust, standard air filter.
Stage 2 as above im getting 270.5 BHP

I had mine done by PD Tuning in Sunderland and i have a custom map from Dave. all i can say is  :jumping: :driver: :congrats:
