Well id imagine that a stage 2 170PD wouldnt be far off the pace of a standard Ed30

It is becoming a problem very quickly! A friend bough a brand new Clio RS200 1 month ago, its already up on pistonheads after spending £680 on petrol this month! Bad times!  :sad1:

Our stage 3 2.0 PD makes 240-260 bhp and 400 ft/lb but you need:

Intercooler
Flywheel (uprated dual mass)
Uprated clutch kit
Turbo back exhaust system
Stage 2 hybrid turbo
EGR removal
Solid boost pipes
PDT stage 3 custom map.

Did one at the end of last year that made 261hp and 380 ft/lb without the egr removal and solid boost pipes but time will tell if the original crappy plastic ones will last.

Very very quick in a straight line, suprisingly quick infact and holds power to 5400 rpm, will outpace a lot of cars you wouldnt expect.

wouldnt mind trying as stage 3 PD170.  that would be pretty impressive.  The stage 2 dE-dpf MAKE ABOUT 220-235 dyno dependant.  had a spin against one in my vRS when it was @ stage 1 before i sold up.  Stage 1 TFSI just about had the legs on it, whihc given the outputs makes sense really.

A stage 3 PD170 @ 260hp makes alot of sense IMO  i can imagine that catching alot of cars out
