WRONG!!!!!!  Coming out with things llike this could cost people thousands more than they would like to spendor than they need to spend

The minimum REQUIREMENT is downpipe and HPFP. Other mods just make it better.

HPFP - Yes.  Or you will get fuel cut.  Stage 2+ is designed around this pump.
Downpipe with sports cat or decat. - Yes
Intercooler -No.  Ideally you will have one fitted to reduce heatsoak, but its not a requirement.  Worthwhile having, but lots don't bother.
CAI - No, but likethe intercooler its a good idea if you want to mximise your output.
CAT back exhaust.  No. Not unless you want the noise.

well i have mixed views on my experiences with bcs. the product is fine but both times i visited them i had to wait about 2-3 hours whilst they worked on another car, which isn't great as its a 7 hour round trip for me. when first fitted they messed up they weld behind the mid box and used a cheap clamp cfurther back. both ment the exhaust was blowing. to their credit they fixed both and changed the tail pipes foc but would have preferred not having to go back etc

So if I fit a downpipe&sportscat and get it custom mapped will that be equilivant to stg2?

Correct.  I have also fitted the Autotech HPFP and will be fitting a BCS TB exhaust in 7 days.  For about £300 extra you could fit the HPFP and go stage 3.  Its Shark Stage 3 for me :evilgrin:

To be honest no i didn't inspect it when the engine was running, you would need to have pretty thorough to spot the welding issue without as the issue was on top of the pipe
