either stay at stg 1 and save for 4wd or RWD car or go to stg 2+ and get a diff fitted etc. Depends how long you plan to keep the car whether makes any sense to go that far. I went straight to stg 2+ with a diff, so big outlay but the car is a beast now, but i would not recommend it unless keeping car for 5+ years as you may as well just enjoy stg 1 and stick £ 250.00 a month away towards something that can get the power down better.
Diamond Black Pearl Edition 30, still going strong but now back to Stg 1

I went from standard straight to stage 2+ and the difference is phenominal. My car sees off standard s3's no problem. Also took it out for a test drive after having it done and slipped the clutch after about 200yds.  :evilgrin:

Really?  The S3 has less power, but I would have thought the quattro system would assist it in demolishing a GTi, even at stage 2+??

quattro = heavy = slow

100kg?

I misread, I was thinking it was a stage 2+ k03, not an ED30.  :ashamed:

It is a k03. Ran 303hp on statllers rollers but that was with octane boost as well
